Digital Transformation Technologies and Processes

The AFMC Digital Campaign is a coordinated effort to move the activities of the Air Force enterprise, government and industry, to modern digital capabilities and processes. The desired end state is a collaborative, integrated digital environment that guides, orchestrates, and delivers the means for each individual across the enterprise to access the data, functions, and elements needed to do his or her job in a purely digital manner. The Air Force seeks a Digital Transformation Technologies and Processes (DTTP) consortium to develop, demonstrate and validate advanced digital engineering and digital manufacturing tools to accelerate their adoption and implementation within the Air Force enterprise and the wider industrial base.

Digital Campaign goals to be addressed by a Digital Transformation Technologies and Processes (DTTP) consortium are numerous and include, but are not limited to: early assessments using mission analysis (to explore operational value of proposed materiel solution); shrinking development time to get to production via paperless reviews, acceptance & audits; system modeling which enables operational and system functional insights across acquisition and operations communities; digital thread capability to facilitate the Authoritative Source of Truth data to be used to re-compete work; methods for efficient validation that enterprise or system concepts meet strict surety, safety, security requirements; optimized test throughout the system lifecycle by delivering mature test articles/systems developed through MBE/MBSE practices; enhanced standardization and common interfaces across enterprise which enable alternate solutions, rapid product development, and enhanced manufacturing flexibility; and, model-based capabilities which enhance logistics and maintenance of fielded capabilities. All of these goals (and many others) require a capable consortium that leverages industry knowledge and best practices and provides assessment, development, demonstration, risk reduction, and validation of advanced digital engineering and digital manufacturing tools, concepts, and processes.
