#ICYMI 🏢A more modern, energy efficient workplace is on the way, thanks to a comprehensive renovation underway at the AFMC headquarters. The AFMC headquarters complex consists of two buildings: historic Building 262, constructed in 1942, and Building 266, built in 1964. Despite various partial renovations and updates over the years, the building has not yet had a comprehensive renovation. In addition to new utilities, a waterproofed basement and upgraded finishes, the renovation project will provide a community area to support teaming, informal gatherings and collaboration outside of traditional office spaces. The more modern workplace environment and additional conveniences aim to improve employee experience and morale. We're excited for this better experience for our team! #USAF #modernization #defense #workplace

🎀It's here! The Air Force Research Laboratory recently held a ribbon-cutting ceremony to mark the opening of the new Collaborative Automation for Manufacturing Systems, or CAMS, Laboratory. The CAMS lab will enhance efforts to research and develop advanced #digital manufacturing technology for the Department of the Air Force. These efforts toward digital transformation sync up with the 2023 AFMC Strategic Plan to deploy Digital Materiel Management to better deliver AFMC’s Organize, Train, and Equip mission. The facility supports several platforms for autonomous manufacturing, including collaborative robotics and industrial extended reality hardware. Additionally, the lab is fully digitized through a motion capture system which allows for the creation of a digital twin of the laboratory for virtual experimentation in a cloud environment, accelerating manufacturing science through the latest artificial intelligence technologies. #AI #lab #USAF #digitaltechnology #defense #R&D

More than 60 industry professionals attended a recent AFWERX collider to address the problem proposed by the Air Force Research Laboratory Munitions Directorate located at Eglin Air Force Base, Florida, which involves the years-long process of improving weapon performance and the difficulty of analyzing and exploiting vast operational data. During the two-day event, participants explored ways to radically accelerate the weapon performance update cycle, delving into topics such as innovative modular software pipelines and #AI based decision-making. One of the primary issues addressed was the lengthy time frame required to improve weapon performance, posing a significant challenge in a rapidly evolving technological landscape. #data #defense #afwerx #USAF

💡Smart energy, big savings. Tinker Air Force Base is participating in the Oklahoma CLEAResult Continuous Energy Improvement (CEI) Program that identifies electricity saving opportunities and quantifies the electricity savings of electricity saving projects. Recently completed projects, have culminated in a significant reduction of electricity consumption that resulted in a $306,993.21 rebate check being presented to the base. We say that's a big win! #energy #energyefficiency #defense #USAF

😕Baffled by the DAF budget process? You're not alone! The Air Force Materiel Command Small Business Office hosted a presentation on "Decoding the Air Force Budget Process," at the Wright Brothers Institute in Dayton, Ohio, to demystify the planning and budget process for local small businesses. Nearly 90 individuals attended the collider in person or virtually via Zoom. Though geared to small businesses, the information shared at the event was valuable to anyone seeking to understand the Air Force budgeting process. #budget #acquisition #smallbusiness #PPBE #DAF
