Description

This announcement is issued on behalf of the Department of the Air Force to solicit innovative research and development approaches that advance acquisition cost data, analytics, and estimating capabilities in support of Air Force and Space Force decision-making. The focus of this opportunity is on developing and modernizing integrated cost datasets, databases, analytical methods, and decision-support capabilities that improve the accuracy, consistency, timeliness, and defensibility of acquisition cost estimates. These capabilities are essential to identifying budget trade-space, assessing cost and schedule risk, and informing Strategy, Planning, Programming, Budgeting, and Execution decisions. Offerors should clearly describe how their proposed research advances the state of the art and improves the Department s ability to analyze competing investment priorities, quantify risk and uncertainty, and support delivery of critical future capabilities.
