Saab, Inc.

Saab, Inc., Dynamics - Training And Simulation Division, a foreign-owned subsidiary of Swedish aerospace and defense company Saab Aktiebolag, operates from Orlando, Florida, and delivers armament training devices, tactical engagement simulation systems, and specialized military training equipment to the U.S. Department of Defense as a prime contractor (75% of recent awards) and subcontractor. The vendor competes in full and open competition without set-aside restrictions across its entire prime footprint.

Saab's customer concentration is dominated by Army simulation and training programs. The top five funding agencies account for 78% of recent awards by count, anchored overwhelmingly by the Department of the Army's Program Executive Office for Simulation, Training and Instrumentation (PEO STRI), which holds 43 awards valued at $18.83 billion in combined potential value. This concentration reflects Saab's role as the original equipment manufacturer for the Army's Tactical Engagement Simulation System (TESS) and related armament training platforms. The Army Materiel Command's TACOM Life Cycle Management Command accounts for 31 awards ($18.4 million combined potential value) focused on Army Targetry Systems sustainment spare parts and services. The Marine Corps follows with 9 awards ($1.37 billion combined potential value) including instrumentation equipment, force-on-force training simulators, and tactical instrumentation systems. The U.S. Special Operations Command and contracting commands at Detroit Arsenal round out the active set.

Saab holds two major indefinite delivery vehicles anchoring its Army work. The Bridge to Enduring Synthetic Training Environment Tactical Engagement Simulation Systems (STE TESS) Multiple Award Contract, awarded March 6, 2025, carries a $921.2 million ceiling and runs through March 5, 2030, with a minimum guarantee delivery order of $2,000 already issued. The Live Training, Ranges and Combat Training Centers (LTRaC) Multiple Award Contract 3, awarded April 1, 2025, carries a $378.7 million ceiling through March 31, 2033, structured across four service lots including target lifters, TRACR computers, IT refreshment, and technology refresh supporting facilities like Joint Base Lewis-McChord and combat training centers. A single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract for Army Targetry Systems sustainment spare parts and services, valued at $8.3 million and awarded August 23, 2024, runs through September 30, 2028, and has generated five delivery orders totaling approximately $516 million in task-order ceiling values as of September 2025. An OTA indefinite delivery vehicle with the Marine Corps, awarded March 10, 2023, carries a $7.6 million ceiling for ship-to-shore analysis and modular simulation bracket redesign. Representative prime work includes a $1.16 million Army Forces Command purchase order (April 18, 2025) for Tactical Engagement Simulated Systems (TESS) and Combat Vehicle Tactical Engagement Simulated Systems (CVTESS) replenishment; a $312,041 Special Operations Command purchase order (August 8, 2025) for a Carl-Gustaf M4 Indoor Trainer gunnery unit delivered to Fort Liberty, North Carolina; a $793,484 Marine Corps Other Transaction Agreement (April 8, 2026) for Program Manager Training Systems' Marine Corps Tactical Instrumentation System-Weapons Surrogates technical development; and a $2.05 million Army definitive contract (September 27, 2024) for five years of contractor logistics support and sustained maintenance on TOW II training equipment for the Government of Oman.

Activity has accelerated markedly. The vendor recorded six awards in 2022 and 2023 combined, then expanded to 32 awards in 2024 and 13 in 2025, reflecting growth through major vehicle awards and their attendant task orders. Six awards carrying combined potential value of $1.36 billion reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months and therefore face recompete exposure in that window.

Saab subcontracts heavily to Lockheed Martin on Army training systems work, delivering laser transmitters, small arms transmitters, and components for Combat Vehicle Tactical Engagement Simulation System (CVTESS) kits under ATMP and related vehicles. The vendor also supplies circuit boards and batteries to Atlantic Diving Supply and VTESS components to Valkyrie Enterprises under related task orders. Subcontract awards span simulation component manufacturing, integration support, and spare parts fulfillment supporting the larger training systems ecosystem.

The vendor's capability portfolio, grounded in its award history, centers on live, virtual, and constructive training simulation systems; armament training devices; force-on-force training simulators; tactical engagement simulation equipment and sustainment; targetry systems and spare parts; and specialized military training infrastructure. Category concentration by NAICS reflects this focus: 47 awards fall under Engineering Services, 23 under All Other Miscellaneous Fabricated Metal Product Manufacturing, 22 under Other Ordnance and Accessories Manufacturing, and 11 under Small Arms, Ordnance, and Ordnance Accessories Manufacturing. By PSC, Armament Training Devices dominates with 52 awards. The $21.01 billion combined potential value across all 153 awards (prime plus sub) represents a substantial and specialized niche within military training infrastructure, though only $513.9 million (2% of potential value) has been obligated to date, indicating that much of the portfolio consists of indefinite delivery vehicles and their unutilized ceiling space rather than invoiced work.
