Notice: All terms of the Joint All-Domain Transformational Model II apply unless specifically addressed in this Call. The BAA is available in SAM.gov.

2.1 Program Description:

The Air Force Research Laboratory, RHW is soliciting technical and cost proposals on the following research effort:

The Combined Joint All-Domain Command and Control (CJADC2) Campaign Plan 2030 defines decision advantage as the ability to consistently make better, timelier decisions than the adversary. Current DAF command and control (C2) systems and processes are optimized for low intensity conflict and do not address decision advantage over the pacing challenge. Deriving effective C2 capability development toward decision advantage requires a clear understanding of what C2 decisions are. The DAF Advanced Battle Management System (ABMS) Cross Functional Team (CFT) provides a quantitative model for the Joint Warfighting Function of C2 as the Command, Plan, and Battle Management decision domains. Each of these decision domains are decomposed in the Transformational Model for Decision Advantage (TM) using model-based systems engineering which bring these C2 decisions to light in a detailed manner.
