About this file
This is a Notice of Intent to Award Sole Source for the Vectrona VoxC2 system. The 4th Marine Aircraft Wing (4th MAW) intends to award a sole source contract to procure a one-year license for the Vectrona VOX C2, an AI/ML-driven training system, along with associated hardware and software. The acquisition is scheduled to commence in FY26 and is valued as a single-year procurement. The United States Marine Corps, through the solicitation number M6786126Q0032, is pursuing this sole source award due to the unique capabilities of the Vectrona system in delivering high-fidelity air control training directly at unit level.
The Vectrona VoxC2 system is intended to replace logistically complex and costly field exercises while enabling Reserve Marines to maintain Military Occupational Specialty (MOS) qualifications and ensure mission readiness. By implementing organic training capabilities, the acquisition reduces deployment requirements and associated logistics burdens while maintaining training effectiveness within budgetary constraints. The sole source justification indicates that this specific system possesses unique technical characteristics that cannot be reasonably obtained from alternative sources, making it the only viable solution to meet 4th MAW's training modernization requirements.
