3.0 AoI Information

The United States Air Force (USAF) is seeking innovative commercial solutions with a Rough Order of Magnitude (ROM) Cost Estimate to activate the temporary enclosure surrounding the U.S. Air Force Academy (USAFA) Cadet Chapel. This approach will divert attention away from the ongoing construction project, mitigate the stark presence of the physical enclosure, and inspire positive anticipation and excitement for the upcoming public debut of the finished chapel restoration.

This Area of Interest (AoI), issued under the AFIMSC SPEED Commercial Solutions Opening (CSO), solicits innovative technologies, processes, or methods to meet the objectives detailed in Section 4.0. Interested parties are encouraged to review the full SPEED CSO for submission and evaluation details. This effort is essential for preserving institutional heritage, supporting cadet spiritual readiness, and communicating campus modernization.

Through rigorous project management, continuous stakeholder engagement, and a comprehensive understanding of the regulatory landscape, the vendor shall maintain a persistent state of compliance and deliver turnkey solutions that are secure, efficient, and fully aligned with the warfighter’s mission.

This CSO AoI seeks to solicit innovative solutions that meet the objectives detailed in Section 4.0 below.
