Enterprise Training Services Contract (ETSC)

The Enterprise Training Services Contract (ETSC) is a multiple-award Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract vehicle established by the U.S. Army Contracting Command - Orlando on behalf of the Program Executive Office for Simulation, Training and Instrumentation (PEO-STRI). The contract is structured to provide comprehensive training and training assistance services across military and civilian domains, with a focus on strengthening warfighter skills, supporting national security objectives, and enhancing combat readiness. The vehicle was designed to be flexible and efficient, with the government intending to award approximately 3-5 contracts in the Full and Open Competition lot and 6-10 contracts in the Small Business Set-Aside lot, with a total maximum ceiling value of $2.4 billion.

Task orders under the ETSC primarily support international military training efforts, with a significant focus on foreign military sales (FMS) and security cooperation programs. Prime contractors such as Raytheon, Applied Training Solutions, Engineering & Computer Simulations (ECS), Pulau Corporation, and Amentum Services have been awarded substantial task orders, typically ranging from $500,000 to over $85 million with durations spanning 1-4 years. Common performance locations include Afghanistan, Latvia, Georgia, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, and other international partner nations. The task orders frequently involve aviation training, maintenance instruction, strategic planning exercise support, and specialized military skills development. Most task orders are awarded on a firm-fixed-price basis, with no set-aside designation being most common, though some total small business set-asides are utilized. The primary funding agencies include the U.S. Army Security Assistance Command, Program Executive Office for Simulation, Training and Instrumentation, and the Department of the Army Materiel Command.
