About this opportunity
The 341st Contracting Squadron at Malmstrom Air Force Base, Montana has issued a Notice of Intent to Sole Source for a Wearable Gunshot Sound Simulation Training System. The Air Force intends to award a sole-source contract to SCENARIO TRAINER INC. to provide specialized training equipment that simulates realistic gunshot sounds for active shooter response training. The system includes the gunSHOT Box and RAS-Pack, which are exclusively manufactured by SCENARIO TRAINER INC. and not available from third-party distributors. This procurement is classified as a Total Small Business set-aside under NAICS code 335999 (All Other Miscellaneous Electrical Equipment and Component Manufacturing). The notice explicitly states this is not a request for competitive offers, as the required equipment has unique salient characteristics that only the identified vendor can provide.
The primary objective is to procure four training systems that generate hyper-realistic gunshot sounds exceeding 120 dB without traditional speakers or expendables, creating high-stress training environments for the 341st Security Force Group's active shooter response preparedness. The system must include wearable sound generators, infrared laser-equipped training weapons, noise-canceling ear protection, portable power supplies, and storage cases, with capabilities for remote sound triggering up to 100 feet away and user-triggered sound generation through tactile input. Any responsible sources believing they can meet the requirements may submit capability statements, proposals, or quotations that provide clear and convincing evidence that competition would be advantageous to the government. All written responses must be submitted no later than August 21, 2025, by 2:00 PM MDT to the designated contracting personnel via email. If no affirmative written responses are received demonstrating competitive advantage, the sole-source award will proceed to SCENARIO TRAINER INC. without further notice, and oral communications will not be accepted.
