About this opportunity
The US Coast Guard Special Missions Training Center announced a sole-source intent to award a purchase order to InVeris Training Solutions for extended warranty service, depot-level maintenance, and repair of InVeris 100 mil Firearms Training Simulators and associated weapon systems; this is a Total Small Business set-aside opportunity with a capability statement deadline of July 2, 2026 at 11:00 a.m. EST.
The Coast Guard determined that only InVeris possesses the technical expertise, proprietary components, and immediate access to simulator parts necessary to ensure continued operational readiness of the training center's systems. Depot-level maintenance, repair, and extended warranty services require specialized knowledge, proprietary parts, and access to technical data that are not available to third-party vendors due to the proprietary nature of the equipment.
The Coast Guard issued this notice under FAR 12.102(a) procedures, which permit sole-source awards when only one source is available. However, any party who believes it can perform the requirement may submit a capability statement by the deadline for government consideration. The government will evaluate responses solely to determine whether to conduct a competitive procurement; receipt of a capability statement does not obligate the government to compete the contract, and the decision to proceed with sole-source award remains at the government's discretion. Respondents should submit capability statements and questions to John Caicedo at john.h.caicedo2@uscg.mil. The government will not reimburse response costs.
Notice text
The US Coast Guard Special Missions Training Center intends to award a sole-source purchase order using the procedures at FAR 12.102(a), as it has been deemed that only one source is available to meet this specific requirement due to the proprietary nature of the InVeris 100 mil Firearms Training Simulator and its associated weapon systems.

Only InVeris possesses the technical expertise, proprietary components, and immediate access to simulator parts necessary to ensure the continued operational readiness of the SMTC’s simulator systems. This purchase order is intended to be awarded to InVeris Training Solutions, INC for extended warranty service, depot-level maintenance, and repair for the InVeris 100 mil Firearms Training Simulator and associated simulated weapon systems.
