Services (GPMS) Industry Day/General Information and One-on-One Sessions

1. HQ ACC AMIC will be conducting a virtual open forum briefing and one-on-one sessions on Wednesday, 19 October 2022 in order to share information on the Government’s requirement for 9AF(AFCENT) GPMS (the follow-on acquisition to the USAFCENT War Reserve Materiel (WRM) contract) and preliminary acquisition strategy, as well as to obtain industry feedback.

Industry day will be conducted virtually on www.Zoomgov.com. To best manage the virtual sessions, logins per company are limited to two (2) each for the open session and no more than four (4) each for one-on-one sessions. Note: Unlimited participants can be present in the room for the same login but we require that all participants be identified as requested in paragraph 5.f. below.

2. We will open the Zoom waiting room at 8:30 a.m. Eastern Time to manage participation and Industry Day will begin at 9:00 a.m. Eastern Time. The day will start with the Government’s briefing and will be followed by an open forum Q&A session. The rest of the day will be set aside for one-on-one sessions from 1 p.m. until 3:45 p.m. Eastern Time and all day the next day on 20 October 2022 (see Attachment 1 below).

3. During the group Industry Day session, the Government will provide information and respond to questions regarding the GPMS requirements and acquisition. Questions will be accepted at Industry Day; however, please submit as many of your questions as possible in writing prior to Industry Day. For all questions submitted in advance, please note whether you want them addressed during the open Industry Day session or during your private one-on-one session. All questions and the Government’s answers will be posted to www.sam.gov upon conclusion of the event without publicizing the point of origination. Questions and responses shall be used as part of the Government’s continuous information exchange in an effort to state the service requirements adequately and appropriately for GPMS. If an interested party believes its questions are proprietary, please annotate as such in the subject and body of your email so that your questions and the Government’s responses are not publicly discussed during Industry Day or posted to Sam.gov. See Attachment 2, FA489022R0051 9AF(AFCENT) GPMS Industry Day Question Template, for the submission of your questions. If you would like to submit questions, please send them via email to Anissa.Ross.2@us.af.mil and Veronica.Boston.2@us.af.mil no later than 3 p.m.
