BACKGROUND: The Army of 2030 will be ready to deploy, fight, and win decisively against any adversary, anytime and anywhere, in a joint, multi-domain, high-intensity conflict, while simultaneously deterring others and maintaining its ability to conduct irregular warfare. The Army will do this through the employment of modern manned and unmanned ground combat vehicles, aircraft, sustainment systems, and weapons, coupled with robust combined arms formations and tactics based on a modem warfighting doctrine and centered on exceptional Leaders and Soldiers of unmatched lethality. 1.2. OBJECTIVES: The Assistant Secretary of the Army for Acquisition, Logistics and Technology's (ASA ALT) mission is to continuously modernize the U.S. Army through the development and timely delivery of overmatch capability to the Soldier in order to fight and win our Nation's war. Part of achieving the Army's objective is to have access to strategic expertise and information to help maximize the Army's budget and execution of dollars provided by Congress to support key programs requirements. 1.3. SCOPE: The contractor shall provide real-time deliverables on Army program developments, under the current FY22 Continuing Resolution (CR), future Army budget requests, and subsequent Program Objective Memorandum (POM) cycles, plus execution of Army programs under previous Omnibus/RAA/Mini-bus Appropriations Acts and activities, including various annual Reprogramming Requests. The deliverables under this contract will be weekly (sometimes daily on time-sensitive developments); written Situational Reports (Sit/Reps), detailed - Deep-dive deliverables; plus, briefings at key decision-points. The contractor shall also provide quarterly formal in person briefings to Army Leadership, to provide latest actionable real-time insights to support the Secretary and Under Secretary; the Chief of Staff and Vice Chief of Staff; ASAALT; Army Futures Command; Army Materiel Command; and other Army Leadership. 1.4.
