Attachment 3 - Brand Name Determination - SFS AR_Redacted.pdf

This is a Simplified Acquisition Procedures (SAP) Determination Memorandum for a brand name acquisition of an augmented reality weapons training system. The document justifies a sole-source procurement for an InVeris Firearms Simulator for the Air Force Security Forces community, specifically for M4A1/M18 weapons training. The system requirements include realistic avatars, simulation weapons, large room scanning, and real-time review capabilities, supporting up to 4 trainers simultaneously.

Market research conducted via GSA found that only InVeris could provide a comprehensive solution meeting the specific training requirements. The government determined this system is the preferred simulator within the Security Forces training community, meeting standardized training and skills across all SF units. The procurement is a small business set-aside with a total business size standard of 1000 employees, and the government will continue to review the requirement in future acquisitions to assess any new commercial or joint solutions at the enterprise level.
