Forecast text
The purpose of the Role Player and Immersive Support Services requirement is to provide a high-fidelity training environment with enhanced battlefield realism including exposure to operational complexities, mental and physical stress, and challenging ethical decision-making. This is achieved by immersing individuals in a realistic battlefield environment using friendly and opposition forces, simulated battlefield effects (BFX) and atmospherics to the level of fidelity so that the perceived difference between the actual operational environment and immersive training environment is nearly indistinguishable to the training audience. This training will be performed in an interactive environment that is both culturally accurate and threat accurate. Cultural, ethnic, and linguistic representation includes live role-player speech, community activities, and individual actions/reactions accurately depicting the current theater of operation. Realistic BFX includes training safe pyrotechnics, simulated weapons and fire and other special effect and atmospherics. The SME services provide contractor personnel support who are conversant in USMC doctrine, tactics, command relationships, planning, scheduling, preparation, development of supporting training documentation and scenarios, execution and facilitation of live standards-based training events, training support instrumentation, and after-action evaluation processes.
