About this vehicle
The Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR) established Training Systems Contract IV as a Master IDIQ with a shared ceiling of $980 million on November 29, 2018. Ordering closed on November 27, 2023, making this vehicle no longer available for new task orders. This contract succeeded Naval Air Warfare Center Training Systems Contract III (awarded November 2011) and contracted design, build, and manufacture of training systems and related devices.
The vehicle is effectively exhausted. Obligated amounts total $401.7 million against combined potential value of $447.5 million—90 percent drawn. Most recent task-order awards occurred in March 2026, but those orders were placed before the November 2023 cutoff; the vehicle received only two orders each in 2024, 2025, and 2026 year-to-date, reflecting tail-end activity. With the ordering window closed, new work under TSC IV is impossible.
When active, the vehicle funded almost exclusively Navy programs: 46 of 47 task orders (98 percent of combined potential value of $417.6 million) directed to Naval Air Systems Command Naval Air Warfare Center; a single Army order (PEO Simulation, Training and Instrumentation) accounted for $29.9 million. Work spanned flight training devices (F/A-18, H-1, CH-53K, MV-22, AV-8B variants), maritime training systems (bridge part-task trainers, full-mission bridges, vessel defense simulators), and software updates for fielded devices at domestic and overseas locations including Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, and Japan.
Competition concentrated moderately among 24 prime contractors. Logistic Services International led by potential value at $97.2 million across four orders; By Light Professional IT Services held a single mega-order for $95.7 million. Xebec Government Services led by order count (six orders, $67.6 million). Five firms captured 76 percent of combined potential value. The set-aside mix was approximately two-thirds unrestricted (32 orders, 68 percent), one-quarter small business (14 orders, 30 percent), and one service-disabled veteran-owned small business order.
Task orders ranged widely: the largest was $95.7 million firm fixed price for software updates; typical orders fell between $5 million and $30 million. Most carried firm fixed pricing; one used cost-plus fixed fee. Performance durations extended two to three years from award. Contractors managed installations and modifications at Marine Corps air stations, naval air stations, and forward locations.
