Projects
New Challenge Coming early 2021
STRIKEWERX will begin its next Challenge in early 2021. As the EAR Challenge wraps up in January, we will again partner with AFWERX to find a solution in another Air Force Global Strike interest area. Watch our website to find out more.
Emergency Aircrew Response Challenge
STRIKEWERX is looking for a solution for Aircrew Response Management. Command and Control requires the ability to manage United States Strategic Command aircrews. The concept is the ability to move personnel from locations on an installation to and from the aircraft into various locations with little or no warning.
Design Sprint: TE Jack Stand
DATE: Sept. 14-18
LOCATION: STRIKEWERX Innovation Hub
ABOUT: This Design Sprint will see industry knowhow meet air force innovation to build a cover for the Transport Erector Jack Stand used by ICBM maintenance crews. During winter, the T.E. Jack Cover becomes filled with dirt, gravel, and snow and freezes to the consistency of concrete. Airmen at the 90th Missile Wing developed a homemade solution that saves time and frustration, but STRIKEWERX will partner with industry to find an innovative, scalable solution for all missile wings in the Command.
Design Sprint: B-52 Brake Drill Press
DATE: Nov. 16-19
LOCATION: STRIKEWERX Innovation Hub
ABOUT: STRIKEWERX is working to solve a challenge faced by B-52 maintenance crews with its Design Sprint later this month. This multi-day design sprint will see airmen collaborate with industry experts and academia partners in an intensive focus to develop a prototype for the the B-52 brakes drill press that will lead to greater efficiency and effectiveness.
