Webinar: Live Capture Teardown Using AI – A Masterclass on the Air Force’s $216M DEAMS Recompete
Watch Two Capture Experts Dissect a Real Opportunity with AI — and Take the Methodology Home
Every capture manager knows the feeling: a major recompete hits the street, and you have to decide fast: bid or no-bid? And if you bid, where do you even start? How do you read the competitive landscape, find the angles, build a strategy that gives you a real shot?
In this session, David Huff and Olessia Smotrova, CF APMP Fellow, will do something most capture consultants won’t: build a capture strategy live, in real time, on a real opportunity, with AI — so you can see exactly how experienced capture professionals think through the problem. No theory. No slides full of frameworks. Just two capture managers with a combined 46 years of BD experience and $28B in wins working through a live procurement, explaining every strategic decision along the way.
The opportunity we’ve chosen is the Air Force’s DEAMS Agile System Integration (DASI) contract. If you are bidding on DASI, definitely join us. But you don’t have to be bidding on DASI to get value from this session. The dynamics we’ll work through – how to read a troubled program’s history for capture intel, how to assess incumbent advantage when the technical baseline shifts, how to build a teaming strategy around a capability gap, how to develop win themes on a recompete – these apply to every complex procurement in your pipeline. We’re just using DEAMS DASI as the vehicle.
