About this file
This is a Sole Source (Including Brand Name) Justification document for a contract with Advanced Simulation Technology, Inc. (ASTi) for Voisus Software and Information Assurance (IA) maintenance. The contract is for the 705th Combat Training Squadron at Kirtland AFB, NM, supporting Distributed Interactive Simulation (DIS) compliant radios used in VIRTUAL FLAG and Warfighter Event exercises. The procurement requires two separate Contract Line Item Numbers (CLINs) due to different funding sources: Operations & Maintenance (O&M) funding for 21 Voisus servers and 420 Voisus clients, and Research, Development, Test, and Evaluation (RDT&E) funding for 1 Voisus server and 5 clients.
The document justifies a sole source acquisition, noting that ASTi is the only manufacturer of the required software and market research confirmed no alternative providers exist. The contract will cover software maintenance requirements including access to the latest ASTi software, Information Assurance updates, and a Prioritized Return Merchandise Authorization schedule. The funding level is between >$SAT and ≤$750K, with the contracting activity under ACC AMIC/PKBC. The Project Lead is Ma Angelica Stringer from the 705 CTS, and the Contracting Officer is Daniel P Glushko NH III. The document was prepared in March 2023 and signed for approval on 11 Jan 2026.

The purpose of this action is to award a contract for Advanced Simulation Technology, Inc. (ASTi) Voisus Software and Information Assurance (IA) maintenance for ASTi Voisus servers and clients located at the 705th Combat Training Squadron (CTS) at Kirtland AFB, NM. The ASTi Voisus software suite is critical to the mission of the 705 CTS in that it provides Distributed Interactive Simulation (DIS) compliant radios used in VIRTUAL FLAG and Warfighter Event type exercises.
This contract will require two separate CLINs with separate pricing for each because the requirement must be split between two different types of funding. DMOC's main battlespace, which is funded with Operations & Maintenance (O&M) funding, has 21 Voisus servers and 420 Voisus clients. DMOC's mini-battlespace, which is used for testing and is funded with Research, Development, Test, and Evaluation (RDT&E) funding, has 1 Voisus server and 5 clients. This contract will also require a separate CLIN for the 4 SIP bridges used to support DMOC's main battlespace.
Advanced Simulation Technology, Inc. (ASTi) Voisus Software and Information Assurance (IA) maintenance for ASTi Voisus servers. There are no other providers of the Software and IA maintenance.
