The contractor must possess the capability to produce/procure, and field additional JTC TRS Program training devices and provide the OM&S support capabilities mentioned above. The contractor must be able to provide all trained personnel, expertise, equipment, tools, material and supervision to operate, maintain, support, and procure for the JTC TRS Program. The contractor shall be required to provide simulator operator support for all JTAGSS systems.The JTC TRS Program consists of three unique trainer types: JTC TRS - high fidelity immersive domed trainer JTC TRS Desktop Trainer - high fidelity desktop trainer Joint Theater Air Ground Simulation System (JTAGSS) - Air Support Operations Center (ASOC) multidisciplinary Air-Ground Command and Control desktop trainer system. In the future, the JTC TRS Program may require the development/procurement and fielding of: High fidelity group classroom trainers Portable JTC TRS trainers (may require Helmet Mounted Display (HMD)) Program Description The JTC TRS Program users are represented by US Special Operations Command (USSOCOM), Air Force Special Operations Command (AFSOC), Air Combat Command (ACC), Pacific Air Forces (PACAF), Air National Guard (ANG) and US Air Forces in Europe (USAFE) The principal mission of the JTC TRS Program is to provide realistic training and mission rehearsal for US Air Force, US Army, and North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) soldiers/airmen in Joint Terminal Attack Controllers/Joint Fires Observer (JTAC/JFO) and Air Support Operations Center (ASOC) positions. Training objectives range from one-on-one single student training up to large scale Distributed Mission Operations (DMO) battlespace integration scenarios. Training objectives are focused on Close Air Support (CAS), Call for Fire (CFF), ASOC operations, Command and Control (C2), and total battlespace management for both the Tactical Air Control Party (TACP) and Combat Controller (CCT) career fields, as well as Special Operations Peculiar (SO-P) training variations for the Special Operations Terminal Attack Controller (SOTAC). The current simulators use COTS software including, e.g., MACE, VRSG, and ASTi. The success experienced to date has hinged on the ability to integrate all programs and load real world training missions. The software integrator that enables this is called DIScover; developed and owned by QuantaDyn. Although specific COTS solutions are not being levied by the Program Office, any simulator solution must maintain the current software baseline capability. Any alternate software solutions proposed will be evaluated by the technical evaluation team to ensure compliance with the established software baseline capability. Capability RequiredThis acquisition will provide: CLS TSSC Concurrency, trainer unique modifications and upgrades Configuration Management CAF DMO Mission Package (MP) 19 or higher compliance Testing Cybersecurity Development and procurement of new training devices
