Statement of Work

For

USAF Band of the Golden West

Description: The USAF Band of the Golden West requires a brand-name-or-equal replacement of Shure wireless transmitters, receivers, and accessories. This package will provide a necessary lifecycle update for our wireless audio systems, significantly increasing the mission effectiveness of the Band of the Golden West. It will provide the tools necessary to reliably manage radio frequencies in high-density environments and enable frictionless integration into existing infrastructure, increasing operational efficiency during high-tempo missions. The Band of the Golden West performs 250 times annually for audiences numbering 1.5 million, supporting multiple high-visibility events. Their audiences consistently include high-level civilian and military dignitaries, and the professionalism presented in their performances is a direct reflection of all the men and women currently serving in the Air Force. The equipment used in these productions must allow them to perform and capture the highest possible musical and audio product.
