This is a Determination Memorandum for a Sole Source Acquisition under Simplified Acquisition Procedures (SAP) for purchases exceeding $10,000 but not exceeding $250,000.

The procurement is for Scalable Display Technologies Software Maintenance supporting the Combined Arms Virtual Environment (CAVE) training system, with an estimated amount of $11,576.25. The acquisition covers software licenses and maintenance for four components: NAWDC Qty 1, EWTGPAC Qty 1, EWTGLANT Dome Qty 1, and EWTGLANT 4M 220 Curve Qty 1. These licenses and maintenance support a comprehensive virtual combat training environment used across three CAVE training sites, enabling realistic, cost-effective training from flight simulation to electronic warfare and joint operations coordination. The sole source justification identifies Immersive Display Solutions, Inc. as the only vendor capable of providing Scalable License Maintenance support for the CAVE's display solution, as the system is configured with proprietary software from Battlespace Simulations, Inc. and MVRsimulations. Using another vendor would require purchasing new display solutions for each CAVE training site and complete system redesign, resulting in increased costs, downtime, and implementation burden. The memorandum confirms that no further competitive barriers exist and replacement or redesign of the system would not serve the Government's interests. The contracting officer and customer signatures and contact information are included, with the form designated as NAWCTSD 4200/6 (REV 6/29/2018).
