Virtra 300 System Maintenance & Repair

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS), Customs and Border Protection (CBPS) awarded a contract to Virtra Systems Inc. for maintenance and repair of VirTra 300 systems.

The statutory authority for use of other than full and open competition for this transaction is 41 U.S.C. 1901 as implemented by FAR 13.5, Simplified Procedures for Certain Commercial Items. CBP has previously procured 28 each model 300 training systems produced by Virtra Systems Inc. These systems allow participants to simulate the actions required in a deadly force encounter during training, in as realistic a way as possible, while still maintaining a safe environment. These systems included a one year warranty. These warranties are now, however, in the process of expiring. In order to keep these systems operational, preventative service and ongoing maintenance is required. Technical support is also a major requirement to ensure that users have direct troubleshooting issues that may arise during daily use. This contract vehicle will include cleaning and service of hardware and accessories, as well as maintenance and updates of VirTra's proprietary software. See attached J&A for further information.
