• The Contractor shall coordinate with ACC/A26, AFLCMC, subordinate units, Numbered Air Forces, and technical stakeholders to identify, document, and manage ISR IT requirements, capability gaps, system needs, and integration priorities.
• The Contractor shall support ACC/A26 in identifying, monitoring, evaluating, and advising on emerging multi-discipline ISR technologies and non-materiel IT solutions that may satisfy validated warfighter requirements.
• The Contractor shall develop and maintain requirements traceability matrices, action trackers, task databases, RFI logs, gap lists, decision logs, and requirements status reports to support enterprise visibility and senior leader decision-making.
• The Contractor shall support configuration baseline management forums and governance activities that identify, prioritize, and codify Command ISR system gaps, requirements, technical tasks, and modernization priorities.
• The Contractor shall analyze technological inadequacies and deficiencies affecting multi-discipline ISR capabilities and translate identified gaps into clear, actionable requirements and recommended mitigation approaches.
• The Contractor shall assist with maintaining requirements databases, architectural archives, technical documentation, and knowledge management repositories to ensure requirements are accurate, traceable, and aligned to enterprise objectives.
• The Contractor shall support compliance with prescribed regulations and instructions related to analysis of alternatives, materiel and non-materiel solution analysis, modeling and simulation, cost analysis, and requirements documentation.
• The Contractor shall assist in developing empirical and qualitative assessments for ACC decision-makers regarding the impact of emerging technologies, procedural changes, system updates, TTPs, and organizational structures on current and programmed ISR systems.
• The Contractor shall participate in Joint C4ISR experimentation, operational exercises, innovation events, and system development and integration activities to capture requirements, validate capability needs, document findings, and manage follow-on actions.
• The Contractor shall support units and Numbered Air Forces participating in exercises and experiments across the TACS and AFTE to identify training gaps, system gaps, requirements shortfalls, and capability integration needs.
• The Contractor shall assist in developing training, certification, and implementation materials that support fielding and sustainment of emerging ISR IT systems, applications, and capabilities.
• The Contractor shall coordinate requirements inputs for test plans, implementation schedules, exercise support plans, experimentation activities, and system integration events.
• The Contractor shall prepare executive-level briefings, requirements packages, decision-support products, technical summaries, and status reports for senior government leaders.
• The Contractor shall identify requirements risks, dependencies, schedule impacts, resource constraints, and integration challenges, and recommend actionable solutions to improve requirements execution, traceability, and mission outcomes.
