About this opportunity
Naval Supply Systems Command (NAVSUP) Fleet Logistics Center San Diego issued a Notice of Intent to sole-source a Weapons Synthetic Training System (WSTS) contract to Conflict Kinetics Corporation, with a response deadline of August 27, 2026. This is a sole-source procurement; no competitive solicitation will be issued.
The WSTS will enable sailors at San Diego-based fleet concentration areas to develop proficiency and certification in small arms weapons handling for the M18 pistol, 5.56mm rifle, M240 light machine gun (7.62mm), and M2 heavy machine gun (.50 caliber). The system will significantly reduce live ammunition expenditure and enable rapid deployment of fleet-wide standardization updates such as CAT III and IV combat qualification courses without resource or capability constraints at individual locations.
The contract spans a base year plus four one-year option years, beginning September 30, 2026, with firm-fixed-price compensation. Performance includes deployment across three government facilities in San Diego with full-time onsite support and 24/7 remote technical assistance. The system must support up to 60 trainees daily with configurable FlatWall and TeamTrainer platforms featuring integrated biometrics, over 2,500 customizable drills, and advanced ballistic modeling for engagement distances of 1.5 to 600 meters, with minimum 85% system uptime (95% during scheduled training).
The Government reserved the right to conduct a competitive procurement. Interested parties may submit capability information by August 27, 2026 to jason.a.pelle.civ@us.navy.mil for consideration in that determination.
