In-person attendees must indicate in their RSVP if they would like to participate in a one-on-one meeting with PdM EWI personnel on the day of the event.

The goal of the event is to assist potential offers and their teaming partners in clarifying and aligning their efforts with the EWPMT requirements prior to release of the formal RFP in 2QFY23. This open forum will enable vendors to ask questions for clarification, operational understanding, and technical understanding and to allow PdM EWI to gain a better understanding of industry capabilities to further define requirements prior to RFP release.

EWPMT is a software application that gives Electronic Warfare Officers (EWO) and Electromagnetic Spectrum Managers (ESM) mission capabilities to plan, coordinate, manage, and de-conflict unit EW activities. It provides battle management for distributed, networked EW capability aligned with fires and synchronized air/ground electromagnetic spectrum operations across the intelligence, operations, and spectrum management areas of responsibility.

EWPMT software was developed through four (4) Capability Drops (CDs) in partnership with an Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) resulting in successful Developmental Test (DT) and Operational Test (OT) events in Fiscal Year (FY) 2021. Several operational units have been equipped with early versions of EWPMT and received associated training to support current operations. The initial release (Version 1) of EWPMT to all Army units became available in FY22.

The objective of this planned contract action is to provide a range of services necessary for the continued design, build, integration, testing, delivery, fielding, maintenance, configuration management, and sustainment of EWPMT. Version 1 serves as the baseline capability to field and for the continued development, integration of new capabilities, and support to software sustainment.
