As well as an active inventory system that actively monitors and inventories in specified locations.<br /> <br /> Historically, equipment tracking and dispatch was an unorganized process managed through handwritten paper dispatch logs and often garbled requests transmitted over handheld radios. Yet due to recent current events within the past year, the need to coordinate these pieces of equipment is even more crucial for readiness across all areas of resonsbility for the Department of the Air Force (DAF).&nbsp;<br /> <br /> Vendors would be required to provide a data plan/data service as well as 5 devices per location to operate their software. Each location would also need to be able to grant multiple users (up to 100 users per location) access to the digital management system on their personal device as well as have an option for the oversight authority to be able to access each location&rsquo;s data/equipment dispatch information. In addition, vendors would need to be able to develop a MAJCOM specific dashboard that monitors inventories across each of the five locations. Also, be able to verify that they have tested or worked their systems within an OCONUS environment and linked to foreign systems before.&nbsp;<br /> <br /> The AF Form 864, as stated in the introduction, requires a multitude of listings and needs to be inventoried so each operational location can monitor where, when, how this equipment is being utilized. On this form, it states a few categories that are crucial in monitoring. These are:&nbsp; &nbsp;</p> <ul> <li>Date</li> <li>Shift/Work Center (Unit, Section)</li> <li>Total Runs</li> <li>Name of Dispatcher</li> <li>Field #</li> <li>Type Equipment (Equipment Serial Number)</li> <li>From what agency</li> <li>To what agency</li> <li>Time requested</li> <li>Time dispatched</li> <li>Priority</li> <li>Remarks</li> <li>Operator&#39;s Name/Signature</li> <li>Remarks</li> <li>Fuel Quantity</li> </ul> <p>Within this management system and tool, the user would need to be able to input these values into a digital AF Form 864 and be able to store within a set database and an external hard drive. In addition to these digital forms, a live database will be required to actively monitors input of the AF Form 864 form to account for current inventories, movement of equipment, and the duration of use. Please see Attachment 01 &ndash; AF Form 864 for the specifics on what the form entails.</p> <p><u>Questions regarding this sources sought are due to by Monday, 6 April 2026 at 1500 CEST.&nbsp;</u></p> <p><em>We are kindly requesting any input on whether your agency has the capability of developing this form of software for our OCONUS systems and accommodate this software with specific hardware in a 6 month or faster timeframe.&nbsp;</em></p>
