# USINDOPACOM Expands Pacific Warfighting IT

U.S. Indo-Pacific Command leaders described expanding a Warfighting IT Platform that integrates service and joint networks, data, and AI-enabled tools, with initial use extending to partners in Japan. The discussion identified potential industry engagement through Pacific Air Forces code-fest events and highlighted demand areas including remotely accessible sensors, resilient communications, network integration, and automation. No solicitation, contract value, or procurement timeline was announced, so this is a market signal rather than an active bid opportunity.

- Contractors may assess whether their sensor, communications, network integration, and automation capabilities align with the platform’s stated demand areas.
- Pacific Air Forces code-fest events were identified as a potential industry engagement avenue; companies should use those events to demonstrate relevant capabilities.
- The platform’s use with partners in Japan indicates a multinational operating context for solutions, while no specific contract vehicle or acquisition schedule has been disclosed.
