The sooner industry learns of the Army's interest in a new capability, the sooner industry can begin to explore or invest in applicable technologies and formulate ideas for Army consideration. The intent of the sessions will be to enhance Government-and-industry communication and enable industry to quickly respond to emerging requirements with innovative technology solutions and partnerships. This event will serve as the kick-off meeting, designed to: • Assist industry in identifying and aligning efforts with CERDEC's Mission Areas • Articulate high-level capabilities and their technical requirements • Present technology roadmaps and CERDEC's strategies to fulfill these needs FINAL NOTES: Information presented during the event is for planning purposes, does not represent a pre-solicitation synopsis, does not constitute an invitation for bid or request for proposal, and is not a commitment by the government to purchase the desired products and services.
