PEO Review & Outlook on 23rd March

Staff Report From Middle Georgia CEO

Tuesday, March 14th, 2017

The Robins Regional Chamber of Commerce’s Aerospace Industry Committee, in partnership with Robins AFB, announces the 2017 Program Executive Officer Review and Outlook to be held on Thursday, March 23, from 7:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. EDT at the Museum of Aviation’s Century of Flight Hangar in Warner Robins, Georgia.

The event will build upon the theme of last year’s meeting and the May 2015 USAF Strategic Master Plan by continuing to examine objectives important to both industry and the USAF, specifically, “Incentivize innovative solutions and improve competition in the defense industrial base by providing transparency and stability in requirements and funding, increasing competitive bids, reducing developmental risks, and encouraging partnering with industry” (AG2.4 from p. 34 of the May 2015 USAF Strategic Master Plan).

The one-day PEO R&O is designed to inform the private sector on portfolio focus areas and acquisition forecasts that are essential for Robin’s organizations to achieve their mission of providing war-winning capabilities on time and on cost. The PEO R&O accomplishes this by bringing interested parties together for a series of presentations by Air Force senior leadership.  Planned for this year are high level presentations on the Congressional Outlook, as well as AFLCMC and AFSC Outlooks.  In addition, Program Executive Officers are invited to provide an overview of their respective portfolios, to include anticipated funding as well as projected future business opportunities.  PEO briefings in the areas of Weapons, ISR/SOF, Mobility, Battle Management, Agile Combat Support, USSOCOM FW, and Fighter/Bombers are planned.  All materials and discussions will be unclassified.

Attendance is open to all interested parties. Early registration price (by 10 March) is $85, then the registration cost increases to $100. Lunch is included. Current government employees will be admitted free and may purchase lunch for $15.  Additional information including the latest agenda and speakers may be found at the following link:
