AI Contract Overview

The USTRANSCOM IT Programs and Support Services Division is conducting an Industry Forum on June 26, 2026, at Scott Air Force Base, Illinois, to engage directly with contractors and industry stakeholders on key acquisition challenges and opportunities. The event is open to all contractor representatives and includes structured sessions beginning with opening remarks and acquisition updates from the IT Programs and Support Services Division, followed by a dedicated small business discussion led by the Office of Small Business Programs. The core of the event features four reverse roundtable sessions, each lasting 15 minutes, allowing attendees to participate in up to four topics during the hour-long block. These roundtables focus on industry perspectives regarding optimal contract structures—including contract types like FFP, T&M, and cost-reimbursement, as well as single-award versus multiple-award approaches—and the ideal period of performance to balance government flexibility with industry stability. A second roundtable explores barriers to small business participation in IT services contracts, including teaming dynamics and past performance hurdles, while encouraging both small and large businesses to share insights on effective collaboration. A third session seeks input on evaluation factors intended to be clear, fair, and predictive of success, with emphasis on technical approach, past performance, management, and price, along with strategies to reduce proposal burden. A fourth roundtable invites ideas for modernizing the acquisition process, such as shortening timelines, reducing page limits, adopting oral presentations or demonstrations, and implementing multi-phase down-selects. An open “Kitchen Sink” forum allows industry to raise any additional concerns not covered, including cybersecurity compliance, labor market conditions, security clearances, transition risks, and performance metrics. Attendees must register for visitor access to Scott AFB by June 18, 2026, providing full name, driver’s license details, and date of birth. The forum is not a solicitation for proposals, and no contract awards are expected; rather, it is a listening session to inform future acquisition strategies. The solicitation number TRANSCOMIF26 identifies this event, while future contracting efforts will be conducted under separate solicitations using procurement vehicles like GSA MAS, JETS 2.0, and 8(a) set-asides, with anticipated contract starts in July–October 2027 and performance periods extending through 2032. Support for mission-critical systems such as TRAC2ES, TEAMS-MPS, and SMS will involve compliance with Risk Management Framework and Zero Trust principles, requiring personnel with appropriate security

Roundtable Specifics

As part of this industry forum, the Government will host a series of reverse-roundtable sessions (see event agenda 10:45 – 11:45 am) to gain industry’s input on several acquisition topics. The Government team invites industry to come to these roundtables with helpful input to share with their Government acquisition professionals. Sessions will be 15 minutes in length, allowing individuals to attend up to four discussions during the one-hour period. Roundtable topics can be found below, and industry partners can sign up for the sessions they wish to attend upon arrival at the event.

Contract Structure / Length / Type: Industry's perspective on how various acquisitions should be structured to balance Government flexibility with industry stability and risk management. Examples of topics for discussion include the optimal contract type (e.g., FFP, T&M, cost-reimbursement, hybrid), the appropriate period of performance, and whether a single-award or multiple-award approach best serves the requirement. Share what structures have worked well—or not—on similar efforts.

Small Business / APEX Outreach: Industry’s perspective on meaningful participation from small businesses and leveraging the APEX Accelerator network (formerly PTACs). We want to understand the barriers small businesses face in competing for and performing on IT services work (e.g., teaming dynamics, past-performance hurdles) Both small and large businesses are encouraged to share perspectives on effective teaming arrangement, etc.

Evaluation Factors / Criteria: Industry’s input on evaluation factors that are clear, fair, and predictive of successful performance. Discussion points include which factors should carry the most weight (e.g., technical approach, past performance, management, price), how to reduce ambiguity in evaluation criteria, and how to minimize unnecessary proposal burden (bid & proposal cost). Tell us what evaluation criteria we should leverage for quality, innovation, and value.

Innovation / Streamlining the Acquisition: Industry’s input on modernizing and accelerating the acquisition process. We want your ideas on streamlining proposal submission (e.g., oral presentations, demonstrations, page limits, multi-phase down-selects), reducing administrative burden, and shortening the procurement timeline without sacrificing rigor.

The Kitchen Sink: This open forum is reserved for any topic not addressed above that industry believes the Government should hear. Some examples could include transition risk, labor market conditions, supply chain considerations, cybersecurity and compliance requirements, security clearances, performance metrics/SLAs, etc. Nothing is off the table – if there is an issue, concern, or opportunity that could affect the success of our acquisitions, we want to hear it. Come prepared to raise the "what we wish the Government knew" items.

*****************************************************************************
