About this opportunity
The United States Marine Corps awarded a contract to continue developing and maintaining the Combined Arms Command and Control Trainer Upgrade System (CACCTUS) through annual upgrades and sustainment efforts. CACCTUS enhances the Combined Arms Staff Trainer to provide realistic scenario-based training for Marine Air-Ground Task Force commanders and battle staffs at the battalion level and below. The system aims to achieve full operational capability across five deployment sites and increase interoperability with other Marine training devices to enable fire support rehearsal and planning through the Marine Expeditionary Brigade level. Annual contractor installations of system upgrades are required through continued program support.

CACCTUS is an upgrade to the USMC's CAST (Combined Arms Staff Trainer). Using the system components and capabilities - simulation, 2D and 3D visuals, interfaced C4I, synthetic terrain, and an after action review, the concept of operations for the CACCTUS system is to immerse the trainees in a realistic, scenario-driven environment to enable commanders and their battle staffs to train or rehearse combined arms tactics, techniques and procedures and decision-making processes. The system is currently providing training up to and including the battalion level. The CACCTUS project will ultimately provide interoperability between the CAST trainer and other Marine Corps Air and Ground Training devices. It will provide fire support training for the MAGTF elements up to and including the MEB level.
CACCTUS is currently deployed at Camp Lejeune, NC; Camp Pendleton, CA; 29 Palms, CA, Kaneohe Bay, HI and Camp Butler, Okinawa, Japan and is not at Full Operational Capability (FOC). This effort will continue to develop evolutions to the current CACCTUS baseline as required to achieve FOC and continue to maintain the system though PDSS. Deployment of an annual upgrade includes contractor installation at each of the five sites.
