About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force Air Combat Command published a Special Notice of its intent to award a sole source contract to ED Mission Systems for A-10 Virtual Reality flight simulator software. The agency requires the software and associated products to provide realistic training missions for A-10 pilots stationed at Davis-Monthan Air Force Base.
The Special Notice seeks to acquire MCS A-10 VR software, including a mission server console station and SDK license, to accurately simulate the A-10 cockpit, flight model, weapons systems, and other capabilities needed to satisfy training standards. Interested parties were instructed to respond by August 8, 2023 if they felt they could fulfill the requirement, though the justification cites EDMS' proprietary ownership as requiring the sole source award to EDMS as no other options can accurately simulate the A-10 to the required level. The contracting officer will determine price fairness by comparing to EDMS' commercial catalog and other vendors, and the justification will be publicized by August 5, 2023 to promote potential future competition.
