About this opportunity
NAVSUP Fleet Logistics San Diego issued a Notice of Intent to Sole Source a Weapons Synthetic Training System contract to Conflict Kinetics Corporation, with capability submissions due June 23, 2026. This is a sole-source procurement only; no competitive solicitation or RFQ will be issued, though the Government reserves discretion to conduct a competitive procurement based on information received.

The WSTS must support training and certification on the M18 pistol, 5.56mm light rifle, 7.62mm heavy machine gun, and .50 caliber machine gun. The primary objective is to significantly reduce training costs through reduced live ammunition expenditure while enabling rapid fleet-wide deployment of standardization updates and training enhancements without resource constraints at individual locations.
Interested parties may submit capability information to jason.a.pelle.civ@us.navy.mil by June 23, 2026. The Government will consider submissions solely to determine whether to compete the procurement; however, the decision not to compete remains entirely within Government discretion. The contract action falls under NAICS 611620 (Sports and Recreation Instruction) and PSC 6920 (Armament Training Devices), and will be awarded per FAR 13.501 and FAR 6.302-1.
