- Description
- The Program Manager Marine Corps Training Systems (PMM TRASYS) seeks to identify sources capable of fully satisfying a need for systems capability upgrades to live training Gaps within the Squad Immersive Training Environment (SITE). The Live training toolkit baseline system is Instrumented Tactical Engagement Simulation System II (I-TESS II). The capability enhancements are not currently available within the I-TESS II toolkit. The Government seeks sources which can provide all Program Management, Engineering, Testing, and Logistics tasks associated with this developmental effort. In addition to the development of the system capabilities a verification of the training systems to meet the SITE capability gaps will be conducted upon completion of development. The system upgrades will conform to the Instrumented- Multiple Integrated Laser Engagement System (I-MILES) specification and ensure compliance with the Common Training Instrumentation Architecture (CTIA). CTIA is the foundational architecture for the Live Training Transformation Family of Training Systems (LT2-FTS) strategy. CTIA consists of standard architecture services, components and protocols, and it facilitates commonality across the various training instrumentation systems and interoperability across Live, Virtual and Constructive (LVC) and joint training environments. The Government seeks suitable commercial items, developmental items, or commercial items that can be easily modified to meet existing Government requirements.
