FUTURE J-BOOKS PLATFORM

The United States Air Force Life Cycle Management Center (AFLCMC) is conducting market research through a Request for Information (RFI) for a future AI-enabled Congressional Budget Justification Platform, known as the J-Books Platform. This initiative aims to modernize and consolidate the manual process of creating Congressional Justification Books by integrating Artificial Intelligence (AI) capabilities, including Large Language Models (LLMs) and AI Agents, and leveraging Corporate Performance Management (CPM) platforms. The platform will replace four legacy Air Force systems (IDECS, EAS, AF MIDAS, and KDSS) and must comply with DoD Impact Level (IL)-4 and IL-5 cloud security requirements. The RFI seeks information from contractors with expertise in AI-enabled financial systems, cloud architecture, cybersecurity, and the DoD Planning, Programming, Budgeting & Execution (PPBE) process to develop, implement, and maintain this modernized system. Responses are due by January 6, 2026.

The United States Air Force Life Cycle Management Center (AFLCMC) and Business and Enterprise Systems (BES) are issuing a Request for Information (RFI) for market research to develop an AI-enabled Congressional Budget Justification Platform, known as the Future J-Books Platform. This RFI seeks information from contractors capable of providing technical support and services to develop, implement, and maintain a modernized platform to replace four legacy Air Force systems (IDECS, EAS, AF MIDAS, and KDSS). The goal is to automate the currently manual J-Book creation process using AI, Large Language Models (LLMs), AI Agents, and cloud-based Corporate Performance Management (CPM) platforms that meet DoD Impact Level (IL)-4 and IL-5 classification requirements. Key capabilities sought include AI-enabled budget system development, CPM platform integration, data integration, cloud architecture with DevSecOps, cybersecurity compliance (NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5, Zero Trust), and PPBE process integration. Responses are due by January 6, 2026, and should detail experience in AI solutions, CPM platforms, DoD cybersecurity, and provide project references from the last three years.
