AIS@P At a Glance

• Objective: Task Orders (TO) <$25M from RFP to Award in 30 days

– It’s a team effort! Both Government and industry will be required to be more efficient than ever

• We Have a lot to Talk About:

– Build information sharing infrastructure to support AIS@P

– A Pool Coordinator (PC) will be assigned to each sRP to forecast requirements, respond to vendor inquiries, and coordinate pool communication

▪ Facilitate direct access to technical teams prior to final RFP

YOU’LL HEAR THIS A LOT TODAY – WE VIEW AIS@P AS MORE THAN

JUST A CONTRACT, IT’S A FUTURE MODEL FOR CONTRACTING

Demand

Curve

It’s not as simple as

$1B / 10 years equaling

$100M per year.

We know there will be a

TO demand curve that ramps with time.

Full Disclosure, we just don’t know how aggressive it will be.

We see a gradual TO award ramp throughout the first and second year as requirements are awarded through AIS@P.

It takes time to build the infrastructure needed for this effort.
