2.1 BACKGROUND

The Air Force Special Operation Command (AFSOC) is responsible for training United States Air Force (USAF) Tactical Air Control Parties (TACP). TACPs are teams of specially trained Airmen with the ability to call and direct close air support and other offensive operations from a forward position. These TACPs go through extensive and rigorous training to gain the Joint Terminal Attack Controller (JTAC) certification. The need for these highly skilled Airmen has increased greatly, and with the reduction of live flying time and live training exercises, AFSOC requires additional resources to assist in training.

A key device that is used in JTAC training is the Joint Terminal Control Training Rehearsal System (JTC TRS). This training device is a high-fidelity, partially immersive simulator which is designed to support TACP and combat controller squadron level continuation, qualification, and mission rehearsal training. The JTC TRS represents a reduced footprint trainer that encompasses high fidelity visual displays, geo-specific visual databases, equipment emulators, and associated hardware and software.

In an effort to certify additional JTACs, six AFSOC locations will be receiving new JTC TRS training devices in early Fiscal Year (FY) 2018. Due to high congressional interest and a congressional addition of funding, these devices are being delivered earlier than expected. The early delivery of this equipment will not afford enough time for military construction to build permanent shelters until FY 2021. As a result, a medium-term solution is required to effectively house and operate the incoming JTC TRS devices.

The Air Force Life Cycle Management Center Simulators Program Office (AFLCMC/WNS) is responsible for ensuring that the six AFSOC locations scheduled to receive training devices have relocatable simulator shelters in which to house and operate the JTC TRS for up to five years until military construction (MILCON) is complete.

2.1.1 PURPOSE

The purpose of this contract is to provide AFLCMC/WNS and AFSOC with a total of six Relocatable Simulator Shelters (RSS) for the housing of new JTC TRS training devices. The RSSs must be delivered at the rate of one per month between October 2017 and March 2018. These six RSSs will be delivered to four locations within the Continental United States (CONUS) and two locations Outside the Continental United States (OCONUS). The purpose of this contract is to have all RSSs delivered and installed so that AFSOC can accept delivery of the newly purchased JTC TRS training devices provided by QuantaDyn Corporation beginning in March 2018.

This contract will provide commercially available RSSs at each location to include delivery, setup, and warranties.

These RSSs must last a minimum of 5 years to allow completion of funded MILCON. These RSSs will allow AFSOC to safely and effectively maintain JTAC certifications.

2.1.2 AGENCY MISSION

The AFLCMC/WNS is the lead organization supported by this contract. This contract also provides support to AFSOC as the end user of the RSSs.

The AFLCMC/WNS is one of six centers reporting to the Air Force Materiel Command. Led by a 3-Star General Officer, Lt Gen John F. Thompson, AFLCMC/WNS is charged with life cycle management of Air Force weapon systems from their inception to retirement.

The AFLCMC/WNS mission is to “Acquire and Support War-Winning Capabilities.” Adherence to AFLCMC/WNS guiding principles enables AFLCMC/WNS personnel to meet their goal to “Deliver to Commitments,” through:

a. Speed with Discipline

b. Trust and Confidence

c. Unity of Purpose AFLCMC/WNS provides holistic management of weapon systems across their life cycle and simplifies/consolidates staff functions and processes to curtail redundancy and enhance efficiency. AFLCMC/WNS’s operating structure provides an integrated framework for decision making and process optimization across the weapon system life cycle.

AFSOC’s mission is to “Provide our Nation’s specialized airpower, capable across the spectrum of conflict… Any Place, Any Time, Anywhere.” AFSOC ensures readiness to execute global special operations today, works to transform the force and fleet to maintain relevance tomorrow, and invests in the resiliency of the force family and relationships.

2.2 SCOPE

The scope of this contract includes the procurement of the RSSs, delivery of site-specific engineering requirement documents to the Government, coordination with the Federal Systems Integration and Management Center (FEDSIM) Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR) to establish delivery location Points of Contact (POC), shipping to final delivery locations, and installation and configuration of the RSSs. With the exception of items under warranty, described in Section 2.5.1.1, post-delivery maintenance and sustainment will be performed by AFSOC. The contractor shall be responsible for providing an acceptable RSS solution and correcting any defects for items under warranty. The contractor is not responsible for the delivery, functionality, or any part of the JTC TRS training devices. The JTC TRS training devices and their installation are the responsibility of the JTC TRS Program Office.

2.3 CURRENT OPERATING ENVIRONMENT AND CONSTRAINTS

AFLCMC/WNS, Air Combat Command, and AFSOC have contracted with QuantaDyn Corporation to produce JTC TRS training devices for CONUS and OCONUS locations. The RSS solution provided must be in place at least 60 days prior to delivery of the QuantaDyn JTC TRS devices that will be delivered beginning in March 2018. If the contractor can only deliver and install one RSS per month, then the first device would have to be in place by October 2017, then one per month thereafter.

2.4 OBJECTIVE

The objective of this contract is to effectively equip AFLCMC/WNS and AFSOC with six Commercial Off-the-Shelf (COTS) RSSs capable of providing a safe and effective environment for JTC TRS training devices.

2.5 BILL OF MATERIALS

The contractor shall provide the products, delivery, installation, and RSS configuration services identified in Section 1.2.1. It is the Government’s intent to award one contract in response to the solicitation. All proposed items shall include, as separate line items, any shipping costs for delivery within CONUS and OCONUS. All proposed RSS solutions shall include certification that it meets the requirements for being certified to operate at the SECRET, Open Storage level.

2.5.1 SALIENT FUNCTIONAL CHARACTERISTICS

The contractor’s proposed solution shall ensure the following salient characteristics are met by any COTS products in support of AFLCMC/WNS’s RSS requirement. These salient characteristics must be met by the final functioning facility:

If the initial engineering and design documents are approved, the Government will provide all necessary site preparations as outlined by the contractor to ensure successful delivery and installation of the RSS solutions. At each site, the Government will provide a staging area for installation and configuration activities. The Government cannot guarantee access to a loading dock and the contractor shall not anticipate this when proposing its solution.

The Government will provide the contractor with a POC at each delivery site NLT 30 days from DOA. The FEDSIM COR will facilitate interaction between the AFLCMC/WNS POC and the contractor to schedule delivery and installation at each site, and ensure that site preparation is complete prior to delivery.
