About this file
This document is a justification memorandum for a sole source acquisition of a Persim Pro augmented reality training simulator. The Department of the Army National Guard requires the Persim Pro Training software, mannequin, and virtual reality program for $77,000 to train personnel in compliance with emergency medical standards. After extensive market research, the Persim Pro system was determined to be the most technologically advanced and up-to-date training solution available, with already programmed medical scenarios and the ability to create customized scenarios. While the government will continue seeking the best technology to train personnel, no other current products were found that could meet requirements as comprehensively as the Persim Pro system.
