Section E: Steps to Preclude Future Single Source or Brand Name Awards
Drones require approval authority from DIU Blue UAS Cleared List and IAW AFMAN 11-502. This particulardrone was listed on the "blue" purchase list and subsequently was approved with the new approval program run by AFSOC. Skydio, Inc was contacted, and the company stated they work with many distributors such as ADS, Nobel, Darly Defense, etc., but all Skydio systems are designed and manufactured in the United States by Skydio, Inc. Atlantic Diving Supply (ADS), Inc currently has a GSA schedule for Skydio X2Ddrone kits and in-person training. ADS, Inc. is the only vendor capable to provide X2D drone kits and in-person training on GSA. There are five (5) companies authorized resellers, whom are also authorized to conduct the in-person training based on the Small Unmanned System Manager (SUASMAN) website, those companies are as follows: Rising Tide Technology Group (SDVOSB), Attollo LLC (SDVOSB), StrikeTheBox (SB), Warfighter Concepts (not in SAM), and Skydio, Inc (SB). Currently, the manufacturer is training other licensed distributors for their product, so those vendors can not only obtain the drones, but conduct the in-person training.
