About this IDV

The U.S. Army Operational Test Command (USAOTC) awarded an Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) valued at $16,299,915.00 to The University of Texas System, acting through its Center for Agile Technology, to provide continuous maintenance and development of the Extensible Command, Control, Communications, Computer, and Intelligence Instrumentation System (EXCIS) Fire Support Application (FSA). The EXCIS FSA supports the design, engineering, development, and integration of current and future Army simulations and test and evaluation (T&E) technologies via the Advanced T&E Enterprise Architecture (ATEA). This includes software and hardware updates, reports, training, and configuration management for the U.S. Army and U.S. Marine Corps field artillery and fire support systems using the Legacy Field Artillery Tactical Data Systems (FATDS) and Advanced Field Artillery Tactical Data System (AFATDS) devices and facilities.

The IDC has been used to issue multiple delivery orders to The University of Texas System. These orders, valued between $279,526.52 and $2,436,890.75, provide support for the continuing development and upgrade of the EXCIS FSA capabilities, including simulation, stimulation, data collection, and data reduction. The work is being performed across multiple locations in Texas, including Austin, El Paso, and Fort Bliss. As a large public university system, The University of Texas System leverages its broad expertise in areas such as engineering, materials science, and sensor technology to support the USAOTC's test and evaluation mission.

Description

The U.S. Army operational test command (usaotc) extensible command, control, communications, computer, and intelligence instrumentation system (excis) hardware and software maintenance and development/upgrade contract has been used to provide continuous maintenance and development of the excis fire support application (FSA). The excis FSA is required for the design, engineering development, and integration of current and future army simulations and other test evaluation technologies via advanced test and evaluation (t & e) enterprise architecture (atea), an open architecture and standards-based systems engineering process established in 2014 to promote improved interoperability and RE-use of t & e technologies. This effort primarily consists of the continuing development and upgrade of the excis FSA capabilities for test planning, test driver, simulation-stimulation, data collection, and data reduction. The contract supports current and future U.S. Army and U.S. Marine corps (USMC) field artillery (FA) and fire support (FS) systems using the legacy field artillery tactical data systems (fatds) and advanced field artillery tactical data system (afatds) devices and operational facilities (opfacs) from forward observer to corps FA sections. Specific outcomes from this support include software and hardware updates/revisions, reports, studies, white papers, briefings, software training, analysis and development of software test plans, and configuration management plans. There are four critical components to the software/hardware requirement in support of operational testing: (1) simulation, (2) stimulation, (3) data collection and (4) data reduction. The software/hardware must be able to support simulation as well as stimulation of field artillery and fire support systems using the fatds and afatds devices. This system must also be able to integrate with the usaotc advanced test and evaluation (t & e) enterprise architecture (atea) in support of the fatds and afatds systems.
