Air Force invites contractors to Little Rock Air Force Base for Industry Day meeting

The Air Force 19th Contracting Squadron will host a Vendor Industry Day next month to review their requirements for logistics, aircraft maintenance, emergency management, civil engineering, and base security.

“The intent of this Vendor Industry Day event is to invite vendors/contractors to share their capabilities with the Air Force to provide new capabilities or better fulfill anticipated requirements,” the Air Force said in a Special Notice contract document released recently. “This is an opportunity for industry to propose new and innovative solutions to the 19th Airlift Wing at Little Rock Air Force Base. The areas of interest are logistics/warehouse modernization, aircraft/maintenance operations, emergency management, civil engineering solutions, and base security. However additional ideas for innovation are welcome.”

The meeting will be held on April 24 at the Walter’s Community Center on Little Rock AFB, Ark.

“This is solely a 19th Airlift Wing effort, however the tenant units on Little Rock AFB are welcome to attend as well,” contract officials said in questions from interested companies. “The tenant units that could be in attendance are 314th Airlift Wing, 913th Reserve Airlift Group, and 189th Air National Guard Airlift Wing.”
