About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force United States Air Forces in Europe - Air Forces Africa (USAFEA-A) is seeking a Fire Pump Training Simulator designed to provide comprehensive hydraulic and operational training for fire personnel. The simulator must accurately emulate pump operations, water sources, and configurations without using actual water or foam, focusing on creating realistic training scenarios through advanced software and hardware technologies. Interested vendors are required to submit a ten-page response by May 28, 2025, at 4:00 PM Central European Time, detailing their capability statement, past performance, technical feedback, and point of contact information. The market research exercise will help the Air Force assess industry capabilities for developing a modular, full-size training system that replicates fire engine pump panels in both top-mount and side-mount configurations. Respondents must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) and will be evaluated based on their technical capabilities, understanding of the requirements, and potential to meet the Air Force's training simulation needs.
The pre-solicitation notice does not indicate a specific set-aside designation, meaning the opportunity is open to all qualified vendors within the Commercial and Service Industry Machinery Manufacturing (NAICS 333310) and Fire Fighting Equipment (PSC 4210) categories. No incumbent contractors or specific award values were explicitly mentioned in the documentation. The simulator is expected to include an Instructor Operator Station with a touchscreen interface for controlling simulations and assessing student performance, suggesting a sophisticated and interactive training tool. While the exact quantity of simulators is not specified, the comprehensive requirements indicate a substantial investment in advanced training technology. The Air Force emphasizes that this is a preliminary market research phase, and submission of response materials does not guarantee a contract award, with the agency reserving the right to request additional information or demonstrations from potential vendors.
