## Description

The Defense Media Activity (DMA) requires annual software license and maintenance support for Broadcast Electronics' AudioVAULT FLEX (AVFLEX) radio automation software. AFN uses the software to provide news, entertainment, and command information programming to US military, civilians, contractors, and their families stationed overseas.

AVFLEX is employed at the AFN Broadcast Center (BC) in its Enterprise Radio Automation System (ERAS) and overseas at twenty-five AFN Radio Stations in their Standard Facility Equipment List (SFEL) 03 AFN Radio Studio Systems. The software is an essential part of AFN’s radio systems used for the production, scheduling, playout, broadcast, and streaming of AFN radio programming to its audiences. This requirement provides annual license and maintenance support for this critical software.

Broadcast Electronics is the only source capable of providing the required AVFLEX software license and maintenance support. The agency’s need cannot be satisfied with a commercial item/service from another vendor.
