Open Mission System/UAS Command and Control Initiative Industry Days

Open Mission Systems (OMS) / UAS Command and Control Initiative (UCI) Industry Days Tuesday - Wednesday (15 - 16 November 2016) NOTICE TYPE: Special Notice Synopsis: SAVE THE DATE, 15-16 November 2016: Learn about the Open Mission Systems (OMS) Architecture to better position your organization for future opportunities. For government personnel, this event will help you learn the "how" and "why" of incorporating 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 tools in your system developments. OMS 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. 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 on weapon systems.
