"the ceiling is NOT money" I'm all in for targeting an IDIQ (if its in alignment with your federal market goals) - if you can suffer through the pains of getting one established (Megan has done a great job of laying this out in her article below), then it can be very useful. But don't let the success of others mislead you. While the instantiation of an IDIQ usually comes with an initial work order and some funding, it usually dwarfs relative to the ceiling. An IDIQ will only be granted if it's clear there are multiple uses or stakeholders aligned against your technology. It requires your stakeholders to be working in alignment to justify the need for a high ceiling and ability to access your offering more than once, and/or by multiple customers. And keep in mind, once it's in place, the work isn't over! It lends you some credibility and eases execution, but you still need to bring customers and funding to the table to leverage it. To dig deeper, check out the latest on our Auxo blog!
While VCs scour the Valley and Hill Country for their commercial, defense, and dual-use unicorns, GovCon companies are on the hunt for their own white whale: the sole source, single-award IDIQ contract with a $1B ceiling and a SOW as broad and ambiguous as the horizon. This week at Auxo, I'm talking IDIQs. Link to full post in the comments below. K. Austin DeLorme Haley Yeagley

The problem with bomber alert is that we let Obama/Gottmoeller reduce the bomber fleet to where even a small alert force of a couple keys per squadron at Minot, KBAD and Whiteman would break the force. When we factor in nuke Calle jets, crew ratio and hanger queens we are quickly Winchester. The last time our bomber capability was this feeble was 1954. To solve the problem we need to do several things. 1. Establish dispersal WSA alert facilities at former SAC bases so that alter is dispersed beyond the current 3 bases. 2. Converted B-52 and B-1 jests need to be returned to nuclear capability and first on the list for LSRO. 3. Bomber crew ratios need to be increased to 2.0 to allow a 1:3 or 1:4 alter ratio. 4. Alert rotations need to be done like in the 1950s where alert bombers are rotated between multiple bases so the enemy has to plan against empty bases and current alert locations. 5. Penetrating Dual Capable F-35s need to be on alert in NATO, AK and ROK. We need to reconstitute a bomber alert force. The model is not 1990 it is 1954 - it is a matter of strategy driven by numbers. Finally, we must deploy SLCM-N on US and allied attack boats and surface ships.
I thought this was an exceptional episode by the NIDS view. Curtis does an excellent job of describing the concept of alertness in the bomber context, what we were able to do during the CW, and the challenges and risks of not considering this option. Part of a broader discussion about how we think about the state of the world. https://lnkd.in/gtnb5SZd

Thank you, Victoria Nuland … "As the Deep State continues its desperate push to cause as much chaos as possible before Trump takes office with the overthrow of Assad in Syria and deeper strikes into Russia causing Putin to loosen his nuclear weapons doctrine." "Newsweek recently published a harrowing analysis showing the effect of a R-36M2 missile impact in major U.S. cities. Also known as SS-18 "Satan", the nuclear-grade missile is a cornerstone of the Russian arsenal with a range of up to 10,000 miles and yield of 20 megatons (over 1,000x Hiroshima). Just one impact in any major U.S. city would dwarf America's WWII losses in minutes." - Washington, D.C.: Approximately 6.1 million people would be within the total blast range, with fatalities reaching 1.64 million. Capitol Hill would fall within the fireball radius being melted. - New York City: With an average of 16.3 million people present, fatalities could exceed 5.46 million. The severe destruction would extend to surrounding areas like New Brunswick and Stamford.

"Insurgency, like war, has an enduring nature but a changing character... Next-generation (next-gen) insurgency will be networked, swarming, global, and focused on narrative-centric conflict and integrated cost imposition." Read "The Challenges of Next-Gen Insurgency" https://lnkd.in/emBxnNwH

The main problem with the ENTIRE #Disclosure movement... you're all focused on recovered craft and alien bodies, while ignoring the advanced #postquantum CTP Sciences required to advance humankind to the next level. This is the #UFOtruth. The Blue Room (Wright Patterson AFB) (https://lnkd.in/eqqAQDds) Your attention is in the WRONG places. #CTPEnergy's focus is on NEW science.

Not my usual content but I put a high premium on truth. With lots of information flying around, I appreciate the clear information presented related to Tim Walz’ #stolenvalor. As far as I can tell, the best and most accurate summary I’ve seen. https://lnkd.in/gVYwxtem
Did Walz Abandon his Military Unit?!?!

Did you know that June 14th is Flag Day? It all started with a resolution passed by the Continental Congress in 1777 which called for an official American flag. Read more about the origins of flag day here: https://bit.ly/3KGcjOO #flagday #flagday2024
