About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force Reserve Command, specifically the 439th Civil Engineer Squadron at Westover Air Reserve Base, has issued a Special Notice of Intent to Award for an Airfield Damage Repair Simulator (ADR Sim). This notice announces the agency's intention to make a sole source award to DS2 LLC (Dynamic Software Solutions) for one C2 Airfield Damage Repair Simulator - Virtual Sand Table system. The procurement falls under the simplified acquisition threshold and is justified under FAR 6.302-1 as only one responsible source can satisfy the agency's requirements. The notice explicitly states it is not a request for competitive proposals or solicitation, and no solicitation package is available. The agency has determined that DS2 LLC is the only company approved by the Air Force Civil Engineering Center to provide virtual RADR tabletop systems integrated with the C2 ADR simulator.
The purpose of this procurement is to provide military personnel with virtual training opportunities in airfield damage repair using advanced gaming engine technology and touch-screen interfaces that can simulate repair processes, track candidate qualifications, and integrate training results into a learning management system. Interested parties who believe they can supply equivalent hardware, software, and equipment have until August 20, 2025, at 12:00 PM EDT to identify their capabilities and demonstrate that competition would be advantageous to the government. Any response must provide clear and convincing evidence of their ability to meet the requirement, though the government retains sole discretion in determining whether to proceed with competitive procurement. The justification is based on previous market research, including a sources sought notice in 2021 that yielded zero responses, and the requirement that alternative vendors would necessitate substantial additional costs, training, and approval processes. No reimbursement will be provided for costs associated with responding to this notice.

Interested parties who can supply DS2 LLC's hardware, software, and equipment that meet this requirement, may identify their interests and capability to respond to this requirement by Augus 20th, 2025 at 12:00PM (EDT). Any response to this notice must show clear and convincing evidence that competition would be advantageous to the Government. Information received will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether or not to conduct a competitive procurement.
A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed award upon response to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. No reimbursement for any cost connected with providing interests and capability information will be provided.
