The Training Systems Acquisition IV (TSA IV) is a multiple award Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract vehicle established by the Air Force Life Cycle Management Center to support comprehensive training systems acquisition and sustainment. The contract primarily focuses on delivering sustainment services for existing training systems, including Contractor Logistics Support (CLS), Training Systems Support Center (TSSC) operations, and software upgrades. Additionally, the vehicle encompasses courseware development, instruction services, and the development of new training systems for aerospace and defense platforms, with a total potential contract value of $32.5 billion over ten years.

The task orders issued to date demonstrate a diverse range of training system support activities, predominantly centered at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Ohio. Notable task orders include a $43.4 million delivery order to Nova Technologies for B-52 training system support and a $6.1 million order to Delaware Resource Group for MC-12 training system operations. The majority of task orders are firm fixed price contracts with values ranging from $1,000 for post-award conferences to several million dollars for system-specific support. Prime contractors include a mix of large defense contractors such as General Dynamics, Lockheed Martin, Boeing, and Northrop Grumman, as well as smaller specialized training and simulation firms. No specific set-aside designations have been consistently applied to the task orders, indicating a full and open competition approach.
