SYNOPSIS: Team Aberdeen Proving Ground (APG) will host the APG Advance Planning Briefing to Industry (APBI) from 23 25 April 2024, at APG, MD. Please note that details, including specific organizational briefing schedules, remain subject to change.

We hope this year's event was a valuable experience for you. To continually improve APBI, we request that you take a few moments and respond to a short attendee survey. Our survey this year has only eleven questions and focuses on both the overall event experience and evaluating opinions on virtual versus in-person events. There are several open response options, in the event your comment is longer than allowed within the survey, you are welcome to send comments directly to the Team APG APBI planning cell at the following address: usarmy.apg.cecom.mbx.apbi-registration@army.mil.

This year's survey will be available through the end of the day on Friday, May 3rd.

Purpose of this update is to post information regarding visitor access to the installation for APBI. Please see APG Visitor Pass Pamphlet attached

The goal of the APG APBI is to describe for industry potential future contracting opportunities for mission areas that focus on: Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Cyber, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance; Research and Development; Test and Evaluation; Chemical and Biological Defense; and APG Garrison. The APG APBI will identify potential contracting opportunities that are aligned with the roadmaps of each respective organization, specifically focusing on Fiscal Years 2025 2026. The APBI slides are anticipated to be posted electronically approximately two weeks prior to the start of the event. The Government will not hear formal bids from industry, as the purpose of the APBI is for the Government to brief upcoming opportunities to industry to help it better understand Army capability requirements and shape its internal development efforts.

In addition to the traditional contract opportunity briefings and small business highlights, this year's APBI will include a selection of special interest sessions. Details about these sessions will be provided at a later date.

APBI 2024 will be held as a hybrid event with both in person and virtual attendance. Virtual attendees will be able to sign on and watch presentations live via MS Teams. We will release more information about logging on to the event, including links, by updating this Save the Date message a few days prior to APBI beginning. For those attending this event in person, Team APG will welcome you back to Myer Auditorium (Building 6000). All portions of this event will be held in Myer Auditorium. There will not be any food or beverage service on site during APBI. Attendees are encouraged to visit some of the local vendors located on APG. We will also schedule 60 minutes for lunch, to allow attendees to go off post and return before the afternoon briefings begin.

Links to the MS Teams meeting(s) are included in the APBI Schedule and Teams Links attachment. Links are also included below. Please check back regularly for any changes, updated read-aheads, general APBI updates, and, if needed, updates regarding DoD health guidance related to COVID-19.

Due to circumstances out of our control, ACC-APG's brief on Intellectual Property (1100-1130) on Thursday, April 25th has been cancelled. The slides have already posted to this announcement. An updated APBI schedule has also been posted. We will include the Intellectual Property brief in our next ACC-APG Local Divisions APBI, that is currently scheduled for 17 July 2024 (0900-1030 am) Mallette Auditorium and virtual. Registration announcements for that event will be published in June 2024. Apologies for any inconvenience.
