Brand name. If the brand name requirement applies to a portion of the procurement, please identify that portion.

Industrial Mobilization Other. Explain:

APG, is the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) of Preflight Genesis Pro Performance and is the only application approved for use on the MEA. There are currently no other programs or electronic applications that meet AMO MEA functionality requirements for the specific MEAs weight and drag profiles.

This application will allow AMO MEA pilots to rapidly perform mission planning which currently requires an hour or more to complete manual computations of aircraft weight and balance, runway analysis, and aircraft engine out performance calculations before launching on a flight mission. iPreflight Genesis PRO will complete these tasks in under three minutes and will expand pilots’ ability to determine the suitability of potential airfields in-flight for rapid contingency operational decisions.

This application will also provide necessary safety measures to ensure pilots and aircrew receive the most up-to-date aircraft performance metrics in the event of engine failure after V1. It will generate a custom departure procedure in the event that single-engine performance is not sufficient to clear a known obstacle on a departure procedure.
