267 mm L x 202 mm W x 192 mm H

A. Salient Characteristics: The system should be computer-based, and able to function as a stand-alone system for deployment, or on a Network for base operations. The system should identify all Airmen by reading DOD CAC cards. ID verification will be performed using CAC pin numbers and not scanning the back of the CAC Card. All inventory will be bar coded using small (1.0 in2 or less) unobtrusive labels which are water-proof, anti-reflective and able to withstand a range of operating temperatures (-80° to 750° F). These labels must adhere to both metallic and plastic surfaces, and be resistance to tearing and delaminating.

Barcodes must be unique to either the product type or serial number. Barcodes will be a searchable field in the item’s stock record. The system must be able to integrate with the barcodes received from product manufactures. All transactions must be able to be completed by scanning these barcodes. (Scanners should have the ability to operate wirelessly). Issuing and receiving items through the use of barcodes allows personnel to instantly and accurately identify and access the associated stock records. The system must be portable for field operations.

The PC must be able to withstand military operations and be military spec compliant.

The system must also be able to perform the same barcode functionality with the use of passive RFID tags. These tags must be less than 10x510mm they must be affixed to the assets with an adhesive that can withstand cleaning solvents, corrosive chemicals, extreme cold, extreme heat, submersion in water, and extended deployment times.

The RFID system must have the option of providing an RFID infrastructure of fixed readers, antennas, and handheld readers. The following tasks must be able to be completed

1. Monitor doors and windows and record items entering and leaving the facility

2. Alert system users when items pass a window or door without being on an active AF 1297

3. Check in equipment using only the antenna structure at issuing points

4. Perform inventory operations utilizing RFID antennas and handheld readers, portals spans and arrays

B. The software must include the following capabilities:

a. Users: The system must have integrated user capabilities. When creating a system user every below task must be a permission-based capability.

The capability should exist where different users would have the ability to create, approve, and fulfill a request for issue. Making system changes should be a permission granted by the system administrator. The ability to adjust user permissions is vital in maintaining oversight and accuracy within the systems processes. This area must allow the system administrator to control user access, accounts and permissions. These permissions must be directly connected with the work flow set up and mapping permissions that must provide warehouse specific rules based on the overall warehouse and the individual sections.

b. Dashboard: The system must provide an intuitive dashboard to see efficiency across the deployment area. The dashboard will give daily stats as to what has been completed on a daily basis. Overviews of product’s statuses should also be able to be seen on this dashboard. i.e., what items are in stock, require reordering, and what is checked in or out. We require the following data on the dashboard:

i. New Stock Entered Last 24 Hours

ii. New Customers Added Last 24 Hours

iii. New Orders Last 24 Hours

iv. QTY of returns in Last 24 Hours

v. Current Open Orders

vi. Current Back Orders

vii. Inventories in Last 24 Hours

viii. Expired Items

ix. Items Awaiting Approval

x. Shelf Life Exceeded QTY

xi. End of Life Exceeded QTY

xii. Stock in Maintenance QTY

xiii. Items awaiting Maintenance QC QTY

xiv. Trends Analysis Data

xv. Current Checked Out Equipment

xvi. Quantity on Hand Exceeds Max Level

xvii. Quantity on Hand Below Minimum Level

xviii. Quantity on Hand Below Minimum Order Level

xix. Zero QTY on Hand

All of these tiles must be click though into detailed data screens listing all of the data.

c. Personnel: A dedicated page must show all of the personnel who conduct transactions with or through the unit. The receiving personnel should be created into the system through the use of CAC and pin. All transactions must be digitally signed using the CAC digital signature. The unit’s structure should be created through the system as well. Personnel should be able to be assigned to their specific squadron or wing within the system. This unit grouping will provide guidelines in generating reports.

GPS two-way communication devices must be able to be assigned to personnel. GPS devices should have the ability to locate any personnel.

RFID and unique barcodes should also be able to be assigned to any person who will be receiving items from the facilities.

d. Issuing Items: Issuing items must be conducted on an independent page.

When issuing items, the system must adhere to the standards IAW Air

Force instruction. Upon completion of any transaction an electronic Air

Force approved hand receipt should be produced. When issuing items to a person the following information must be gathered; personnel name, assigned unit, product(s) received, national stock number (NSN), quantity issued, unit of issue, serial number if applicable, and the transaction date.

A digital signature should be captured when the receiving person inputs their CAC and pin. The system user who issued the item(s) to the personnel should also be logged. All of the aforesaid requirements must be populated electronically; to ensure mistakes are eliminated and records can be maintained. During the issuing process; barcodes and RFID tags should be able to be scanned, assigning the item to the receiving personnel. The software will use the serial number as the unique identifier to compare barcode, RFID, and GPS devices to. All keys must be based off of the serial number. All electronic tagging process are implemented for speed only. System users need the ability to sign out groups of consumable/ expendable items using a single barcode. A barcode will need to be used when issuing a UTC or increment. A picklist will need to be generated to show the issuing personnel exactly where all of the requested items are located. Lastly, the system should improve the amount of time it takes to issue any number of items to a receiving authority. Although speed is an important aspect, the most vital element is the accuracy provided. An AF 1297 should be generated to show the entire history of items issued.

e. Receiving Items: When receiving items into the facility, the system must adhere to all existing Air Force standards and regulations. Upon the completion of every turn in a receipt should be generated to reflect the transaction, this report should be able to be printed and given to the person who returned the item(s). When returning items, you should have the ability to scan barcodes and RFID tags. Every item that is returned should be marked as either serviceable or unserviceable.

f. Inventorying Items: The system must provide the same inventory processes listed in preexisting Air Force regulations. The system must be capable of providing real time inventory quantities in relation to bench stock levels set forth by the facilities manager. Inventories should be able to be conducted of all R14 property book items; as well as items not listed on the R14. When conducting an inventory, the inventorying authority should have the ability to inventory only their selected equipment. i.e. a communications shop should be able to select only the radio shop equipment. After selecting an item type to inventory; the items serial number, NSN, and storage location should be shown. An inventory should also be able to be conducted using RFID antennas and handheld readers, this will enable inventorying personnel to significantly reduce the amount of time required to complete an inventory. When conducting an inventory, the system must notify the user, if the user is conducting an inventory consecutively. Due to existing regulations personnel are not supposed to be the inventorying authority consecutively. When an inventory is complete a report must be generated (and printable) that shows what items were accounted for and what items were not. In the instance of an expendable item a quantity delta must be available to show either the loss or gain in an item’s quantity. Whomever is responsible for conducting the inventory should be logged through the system indefinitely.

g. Reporting: Obtaining accurate reporting for all tasks conducted through the system is required. Obtaining analytics based off of the day to day processes will enable to unit to increase oversight, backwards plan, and maintain accountability across all levels. Ultimately all reporting functions will aid in saving money by not reordering unneeded supplies and reducing waste. Reporting should be able to show what items are currently issued to include serial numbers and NSN’s. A report should be able to be generated to see all of the personnel who have received items from the facility. Item level analytics should include the reconciliation of all stocks in relation to their reorder points and the quantity of the item issued during a set time frame. Value reporting should also be available, users will need to see the total value of a specific item type as well as the value of their entire warehouse. Enabling an airman to see exactly what they are accountable for will provide a sense of personal accountability not obtainable through other means. Reporting should have the ability to expand and develop as needs arise within each of the unit’s shops.

h. Hardware: All hardware should meet TAA compliance as set forth by

DOD mandates. The system must be capable of backing up to an external hard drive or CD-ROM and transferred to a different computer

i. Mobile Operations: Conducting tasks on a mobile handheld scanner is required. The device must be windows or android based and capable of loading inventory information from the main database. The mobile device must be able to load all pertinent information relating to a stock item to include; item name, current quantity on hand values, NSN, serial number, barcode, RFID, GPS IMEI number, and storage location. An inventory must be able to be conducted using the handheld device in an offline mode. Offline mode to mean the main database information will be exported to the mobile device, the device can inventory all items without being connected, the inventory can then be uploaded into the application and all inventory data will be updated to reflect current levels. The device must be capable of conduct RFID inventories in both an offline and online mode.

j. User Manuals/ Tutorials: The system must have imbedded training elements. Training videos are preferred. A user manual or tutorial must be present to guide airmen through all processes within the system. Each system task should be complete with pictures and a step-by-step guide to completing. If a system update should be required a manual depicting all software changes is required. These update manuals must follow the same guidelines set forth in the aforementioned tutorial. Ideally videos would be able to be accessed from each page depicting a page overview as well as how to maneuver through the specific task. All videos, tutorials, and manuals must be viewable when not connected to the internet.

M. RFID

• Level 1- Basic- The basic system allows you to add passive RFID tags to the equipment and a RFID handheld reader along with an RFID

USB scanner. This gives the unit the capability of scanning the items in and out using RFID tags instead of scanning barcodes which is much more efficient. The mobile hand held allows you to conduct a serial number inventory in just minutes for thousands of items. The entire inventory can be conducted on the hand-held device, reconcile on the device and account for all equipment in minutes. *

• Level 2- Enhanced- This option allows you to add RFID antennas to the windows and doors where equipment passes through for issue and return. The antennas monitor the equipment and makes record of it passing through the doors and windows at all times. The system will alert the facilities users when an item attempts to leave but is NOT issued on an AF 1297. This will assist in having items leave the facility without the items being issued properly. *

• Level 3- Rain- This is the third layer of RFID in which an entire facility is blanketed with RFID antennas. The antennas are used to constantly monitor each item on the shelf or rack. Once every minute the RFID antennas will locate each tag and report that item as accounted for.

Essentially a constant real time inventory of items that can be read by solely using the antenna infrastructure. This usually results in instant inventory of equipment visible to the RFID antennas, the remaining non-read or non-tagged equipment can be picked up with the handheld RFID scanner. The system can get interference from high metal environments but coverage is usually pretty wide spread. You can inventory most items within minutes any time of the day or night. *

• RFID tags must have the following capability:

o Protected mode. The Tags must contain a secure encrypted code that turns the RID tags on and off using a specific unit issued mobile device that only that specific unit possess. The tags must be able to be turned on and off for specific missions using only the encrypted connected mobile device that interfaces with the

RFID readers and antennas.

o Password protected mode. The tags must be able to be sent random password protected mode security using IoT commands.

This must be done in mass level on command and not by a single tag only.

o RFID kill mode. The RFID tags must have a RFID Tag kill mode using IoT commands to permanently kill a tag signal in a single tag or a mass command.

O. Encrypted RFID Reader and Mobile Device Software Capability

• The RFID Reader must have the following IoT Capability o The tags and the reader must operate on an optional filter mode. The filter must be customizable. The filter must all the readers to only accept specified encrypted RFID tags that are encoded with a specified and authorized code for the readers, mobile devices and tags. The tags are custom made with a customer specific encrypted code that only interfaces with its assigned readers and mobile devices, not any other devices on the market.

o The reader filter must not allow any non-customer specified tag reads to enter the network. All attempted unauthorized tag reads must be set in reader memory and put unto a known list of errant tags that are instantly blocked from the network.

o The mobile device RFID software must only accept known customer designated encrypted tags that can be processed and stored on a specific encrypted mobile device. The device must ignore all tags except the specified encrypted tags designated for that specific customer and no other mobile device not assigned to that customers network.
