The Department of State (DoS), Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs (INL), Office of Aviation (Air Wing) is hosting an Industry Best Practice Conference to conduct market research and seeking industry input as it prepares to solicit sources for future aviation support to solve problems and execute missions.
The Air Wing’s aviation missions include counter narcotics, host nation training, maritime interdiction training, counter terrorism, embassy support, and other rotary wing, fixed wing, or Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS) missions around the world, often in challenging environments.
This market research event will be a way for the Air Wing to gauge interest and identify potential business sources with the resources, capabilities, and experience to successfully deliver requisite services to sustain the Department’s aviation fleet. Industry should be prepared to discuss innovative solutions to problems, available technologies, and capabilities. The Department staff will present an Air Wing overview briefing, describe functional core and supporting contract requirements, and offer opportunities for one-on-one sessions with the Government. The conference will be held on October 28, 2024, in Melbourne, Florida with follow-on one-on-one discussions.
