FLIGHT SCOOL NEXT (FSN) PROGRAM

Question Response

Are there any details you can share on when the flight demos will take place and how to coordinate? Additionally, is there an agenda for the FSN Site Visit?

Thank you for the question. Flight demos were set-up and are being ran by G3 Air in conjunction with Aviation Industry Days and will be held on Monday, 28 July.

The demonstration is for government only and is NOT associated with Flight School Next; however, the government reserves the right to any information gathered from the demonstrations to use as additional Market Research. If companies are interested in demonstrating their aircraft, contact Paul Meisner at paul.e.meissner2.civ@army.mil to coordinate. The detailed agenda and brief sides for the 30 July FSN brief as part of Aviation Industry Days and follow-on site visit will be posted on Sam.gov NLT 20 July 2025.

The following Site Visit General agenda is provided for planning purposes:

Regarding the upcoming industry site visit, when will the US Army publish an agenda and will there be an opportunity for industry members to provide solution demonstrations or otherwise engage directly with US Army AVCOE stakeholders during the site visit?

Thank you for the question. Initial agenda information for the Site Visit has been provided. The ACC-RSA Contracting Command team will be providing an information session from 1500 - 1700 on the 31st. This will be a MS Powerpoint presentation and will also be posted to SAM.gov for those not able to attend.

This will not be press-conference styled "Question & Answer" session; however, the accepted using the Q&A link prior to the info session and discussed during the 31st. The AVCOE stakeholders and ACC Contracting teams will be circulating at both the Industry Days and Site Visit; however, the government is requesting that industry members respect the Government Contractors' Code of Ethics: •

It was noticed that there are FSN directed advertisements on the MWR/Ft. Novosel site.

Is there an opportunity for paid advertising on

MWR?

Yes. For information to place Paid Advertising, contact: Rakhmanov, Casey N CIV USARMY ID-TRAINING (USA) <casey.n.rakhmanov.naf@army.mil>

Regarding the 3-person limitation per company for the site visit, as you may know Lockheed Martin owns several companies (Sikorsky, Derco, etc) and they are interested in attending the FSN site visit. Is LM limited to 3 personnel as a whole or may we send 3 personnel from each interested LM company?

Thank you for this question. The established rules on attendance permit up to three (3) personnel for each unique CAGE code & UEI combination. However, the government reserves to right to limit attendance, based upon capacity maximums, in order to preserve the intent of the CSO and Site Visit to reach non-traditional Defense contractors and increase innovation.

What is the registration deadline for the Flight School Next Site visit at Ft. Novosel scheduled on 30 July – 1 August 2025?

Per the Special Procurement Notice, the last day to register for the FSN Site Visit is 7/14/2025

FLIGHT SCOOL NEXT (FSN) PROGRAM

Per the recent Government Broad Agency Announcement, Fort Novosel’s Aviation Industry Days are scheduled for 28-30 July 2025. SAM.gov Separately, the Flight School Next Special Procurement Notice lists an FSN Site Visit at Ft. Novosel for 30 Jul 2025 – 01 Aug 2025. Are these two separate events with some overlap on 30 Jul, or is this a schedule discrepancy? It looks like each event has its own Registration requirements.

Thank you for your questions. There is an overlapping of 2 hours. The Fort Rucker Aviation Industry Days conclude on the 30th. During the 2 hours of 1500 - 1700 hrs., on the 30th, the ACC-RSA contracting team will be presenting an overview of the Flight School Next program and walking through the impact of FSN on the contracts currently providing service at the AVCOE. This overview will also introduce a discussion of the solicitation type, evaluation methodology, and award type.

I am reaching out in regards to the Flight School Next Site visit. Is there an agenda for this site visit? If not, would you be able to share at what time the visit would begin on the 30th, and end on the 1st? I am asking because we are trying to determine who from our team would be able to join.

Thank you for your question. Please see response to question #1 above.

Guimbal and Cabri USA will be signing up for the For Novosel Site Visit. I see that the dates for this listed are July 30-August 1st. Is the visit planned to take place over all three days, or is it the same presentation each day? Are there any scheduling details you can provide so we can plan our flights?

Thank you for your question. Site Tours will be on the 31st and the 1st. These will not be same sites on both days, but rather different sites and locations across Ft.
