The draft agenda outlines a three-day event scheduled for October 29-31, focusing on the Project Management and Systems Engineering Team (PdM SPTD) discussions with stakeholders. The agenda includes opening remarks, an overview of capability gaps and requirements presented by the Soldier Requirements Division, and detailed discussions on the LASSO program, including overviews of its roadmap, technical discussions, and testing efforts. Aimed primarily at facilitating one-on-one sessions between U.S. government representatives and vendors, the allotted time for these discussions encompasses two days following the initial presentations. Overall, the agenda serves to align government and vendor expectations and capabilities relevant to defense systems, emphasizing collaboration and knowledge sharing in the development of military technologies. The structure is designed to maximize interaction and in-depth discussion on critical program needs and possibilities for improvement.

The Industry Day Questionnaire outlines requirements for prospective contractors wishing to engage with the Department of Defense (DoD) regarding the All Up Round (AUR) systems and associated technology. It seeks comprehensive information about company background, including services offered, business status (large, small, or non-traditional), and security clearances of attendees. Additionally, the questionnaire requests specific details about the AUR’s technical specifications, including system performance, weight, dimensions, and compliance with Modular Open Systems Architecture (MOSA). The document emphasizes the importance of system reliability and performance metrics, including propulsion types, endurance, and navigation systems, while also requiring details on production capabilities and pricing for units. Furthermore, it discusses the integration of the AUR with existing Army systems, highlighting the need for interoperability and adaptability against evolving threats. The primary purpose is to gather crucial data to support decision-making in selecting contractors capable of enhancing infantry combat capabilities through innovative technologies. Responses are intended to inform system architectures and future procurement strategies.
