Flight Ops Market Research RFI Update 10Mar2025.pdf

This document is a Request for Information (RFI) from the Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Lifecycle Management Center's Kessel Run Program Management Office (PMO) seeking market research for a comprehensive flight operations management application. The RFI targets an enterprise-level software solution that will integrate scheduling, training, and standardization/evaluation capabilities for Mobility Air Force, Combat Air Force, Space Force, and Joint Users, with a focus on optimizing aircrew, pilot, and Guardian mission readiness through advanced data-driven technologies.

The RFI emphasizes a technology approach rooted in Agile principles, DevSecOps, and Lean product management, aiming to develop a scalable application that combines features from existing legacy products (Patriot Excalibur and Puckboard). The solution will support mission-critical functions including learning management, currency management, allocation, and scheduling, with the ultimate goal of providing tactical readiness insights and strategic decision-making capabilities across multiple operational domains. Contractors are invited to demonstrate their capabilities in meeting these complex operational technology requirements for the Department of the Air Force Battle Network.
