The Department of the Air Force Air Education and Training Command awarded a single award indefinite delivery contract to CAE USA Inc. Link Training & Simulation Division, a subsidiary of L3Harris Technologies, Inc. The contract provides simulation and training services to support the Combined Aircraft Maintenance Solution program for the Iraqi Air Force.
Two task orders have been issued against the contract to date. The first task order, awarded in June 2021 and valued at $1,096,627.88, provided training at the contractor's facility in Arlington, Texas through June 2022. The second task order, awarded in June 2022 and valued at $934,420.00, requires the contractor to develop courseware and conduct training for Iraqi Air Force personnel in Iraq from June 2023 through July 2024 on maintenance and support of the F-16 Block 52 aircraft. Both task orders utilize firm fixed price contracting and were awarded non-competitively utilizing the indefinite delivery contract vehicle.
The contract aims to provide the Department of the Air Force cost-effective solutions for delivering maintenance training and readiness preparation to coalition partners like the Iraqi Air Force operating U.S.-origin platforms. By utilizing contracted simulation and training support, AETC can help maintain allied air capabilities without detracting from its domestic education responsibilities.
