About this opportunity

The Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Lifecycle Management Center at Hanscom Air Force Base is seeking a comprehensive flight operations management application through a market research Request for Information (RFI). The application aims to streamline workflows and optimize mission readiness for aircrew, pilots, and Guardians across Mobility Air Force, Combat Air Force, Space Force, and Joint Users. Key contract requirements include developing an enterprise-level software solution that integrates scheduling, training, currency management, and standardization/evaluation capabilities using Agile principles, DevSecOps, and user-centered design methodologies. Potential contractors must demonstrate capabilities in producing a solution that can efficiently match personnel and assets with operational needs while providing real-time tracking and decision-support capabilities. The RFI was posted on March 7, 2025, with responses due by April 7, 2025, and is designed to facilitate market research and determine the most effective strategy for fulfilling operational requirements.

There are no specific set-aside designations for this opportunity, and no incumbent contractors were explicitly named in the documentation. The RFI targets a comprehensive software solution that will leverage features from existing legacy products like Patriot Excalibur and Puckboard, suggesting potential integration or replacement of current systems. Contractors must be in-production, FedRamp or DISA IL-4 certified, and registered in the DoD Special Air Mission system. While no specific award value or budget range was provided, the solution is intended to be an enterprise-scalable application supporting mission-critical functions across multiple operational domains. The project appears to be part of a broader digital transformation effort within the Department of the Air Force Battle Network, focusing on creating a flexible, data-driven technology platform to enhance strategic and tactical readiness.

Notice text

The Program Management Office (PMO) at AFLCMC/C3C, Kessel Run, is seeking information for a comprehensive flight operations management application aimed at streamlining workflows and efficiently utilizing resources for peacetime and wartime operations. This RFI presents a unique opportunity for companies to showcase their product(s) and/or capabilities in meeting user needs and operational requirements.  

As a portfolio within Kessel Run, Flight Ops leverages industry best practices to rapidly deliver capabilities while posturing for future information technology (IT). Flight Ops is looking for a production and/or solution that will meet the needs of our Users across the globe while embracing Agile principles, Development Security Operations (DevSecOps), and Lean product management practices to continuously integrate and deliver software capabilities.  Flight Ops embraces a culture of rapid feedback loops, e.g., build, measure, learn, and user-centered design managed by Government-led teams to rapidly develop, produce, and deploy software across the Department of the Air Force (DAF) Battle Network, while continuously iterating and improving upon those software applications. 

The Flight Ops PMO is currently working to develop an Enterprise solution leveraging the best of the current fielded legacy products (Patriot Excalibur and Puckboard). Flight Ops will provide an Enterprise scalable capability optimizing aircrew, pilot, and Guardian human and materiel mission readiness through learning management, currency management, allocation, and scheduling.  Flight Ops will ensure data-driven tactical readiness, strategic situational awareness, and combatant decision advantage. Flight Ops will combine scheduling, training, and standardizations / evaluations (stan/eval) applications, supporting Mobility Air Force and Combat Air Force sorties, as well as scheduling for Space Force and Joint Users. Scheduling matches aircrew to missions and equipment, including airframes, for the purpose of conducting operational and training missions, evaluation of training, and development of evaluation standards, etc. 

Flight Ops seeks information on capabilities from interested contractors to support the subject requirements to facilitate market research and determine the best strategy and approaches for fulfilling user needs and operational requirements.
