****This is a synopsis of the OMS/UCI Training Event to be held 11 July 2017 through 12 July 2017. Please review attachment for full OMS/UCI Training Event announcement**** OMS/UCI Training Event Learn about Open Mission Systems (OMS) and UAS Command and Control Initiative (UCI) to better position your organization for future opportunities. This training event is a combination of briefings, workshops, and hands-on events. The briefings and workshops will be presented on the first day. The two hands-on sessions-OAM Basic Training and Advanced Training-will be conducted on the second day. Observers will be accommodated during the hands-on training as space allows. The OAM Basic Training hands-on session introduces participants to the fundamentals of compliant software development in Java and C++. The Advanced Training session allows participants to integrate their own existing OAM compliant services into a pre-defined mission package. This event will help you understand how OMS/UCI enables innovative and competitive solutions for future technology developments and upgrades. For government personnel, this event will help you learn the "how" and "why" of incorporating OAM Standards (OMS/UCI) into your acquisition strategies. For industry providers, this forum will assist you with understanding the technical details of the OMS/UCI standard and how to begin using these standards and related products in your system developments. OMS/UCI is an industry-led initiative chartered by the AFRCO to develop and demonstrate a consensus-based, non-proprietary, open architecture for integrating subsystems and services into airborne platforms as well as ground systems. The business cases driving this effort are the need to reduce acquisition and life-cycle costs as well as the need to reduce the risks associated with development, sustainment, technology refresh, and capability upgrades of mission system architectures. We want to ensure equal access to this event; however, space is limited so reservations are accepted on a first come, first served basis. Each company's sector is limited to three (3) attendees in order to accommodate the maximum number of companies. The event is unclassified and is limited to U.S. Citizens.
