TSS-E Mission Support Services II (TSS-E)

The Department of the Army Training and Doctrine Command awarded TSS-E Mission Support Services II, a Master IDIQ for Training Support Systems Enterprise mission support services, on December 21, 2017, with ordering authority that closed on December 20, 2022. The vehicle is no longer accepting new orders.

The vehicle established a shared ceiling of $554.2 million and is executed through seven prime contractors across 72 task orders. Calibre Systems Inc. dominates the competitive landscape, holding 34 orders worth $316 million in combined potential value—approximately 48% of the total vehicle value. Booz Allen Hamilton Inc. is the second-largest prime by value, with $176 million across five orders, followed by PTSI Managed Services Inc. with $74.1 million across 15 orders. The remaining four primes hold smaller shares. Task orders are unrestricted; all 72 awards carry no set-aside designation.

Actual task-order activity significantly exceeds the master IDIQ ceiling: the 72 awarded task orders carry a combined potential value of $658.8 million, with $522.6 million obligated (79% of combined task-order value). This expansion reflects heavy use of the vehicle after award and indicates strong customer demand. Annual ordering peaked in 2019 at 11 orders and moderated thereafter (2020: 5 orders; 2021: 6 orders; 2022: 4 orders), though activity resumed with 9 orders in 2023—the most recent award dated July 1, 2023. Task-order durations extend into 2028, with ultimate completion dates ranging across multiple years.

The Department of the Army Training and Doctrine Command accounts for roughly 67% of all orders ($443.6 million of $658.8 million combined potential value across 57 of 72 task orders), with secondary demand from Forces Command, Installation Management Command regional offices, and Materiel Command. Work concentrates at major training installations including Fort Irwin (National Training Center), Fort Bragg, Joint Base Lewis-McChord, and Fort Eustis, with subordinate operations at domestic training centers and one overseas site at Grafenwoehr Training Area, Germany.

Task orders span integrated training area management (ITAM) support, role-player services, range operations and maintenance, warehouse operations, training support center labor, geospatial information systems support for the Sustainable Range Program, and combat training center instrumentation and fielding support. Recent mega-orders in 2023 include NTC range operations ($50.5 million ceiling), SRP portal support ($33.6 million ceiling), and sustainment-focused ITAM and range geospatial support orders in the $7 million to $11 million range. Pricing structures mix firm fixed price with cost-no-fee arrangements. The vehicle predecessor, TSS Enterprise Mission Support Services, was awarded in 2011.

The purpose of this Master IDIQ is to provie Training Support Systems Enterprise (TSS-E) Mission Support Services for the Army Training Support Command (ATSC) in Ft Eustis, VA. The TSS-E's mission is to provide relevant and realistic Live, Virtual, Constructive, and Gaming (LVC & G) integrated training and program support through the Army's TSS-E services, products, and facilities.
