2.0 PROGRAM BACKGROUND AND SCOPE OF WORK
2.1. Requirement Overview
The Government anticipates a future requirement to support production of a build-to-print mature product. These products have completed development and testing, have a stable and fully documented design, proven performance characteristics, and are supported by an established process for change incorporation.
The contractor will work in collaboration with the program office and the in-service engineering agency across the following areas to ensure fleet readiness:
Configuration Management
Proactive & Transparent Communication
Meticulous Documentation and Data Delivery
Collaborative Problem Solving
Technical Partnership
The contractor will work with integrated training systems production, system engineering, hardware procurement, testing, maintenance, warehousing, repair, logistics, and documentation as required for US Navy ships, Foreign Military Sales (FMS) and shore sites.
Specific areas include:
Project Management: Perform comprehensive program management, manufacturing, and data delivery functions. The core task is to build a standard product, have it accepted by the government, and then customize it for specific shipboard configurations. The Navy places a strong emphasis on a partnership built around three key areas: disciplined program management, rigorous quality control, and transparent financial stewardship.
Production: Produce, Test, and Deliver the AN/T46 Battle Force Tactical Training (BFTT) suite, the AN/T52 Advanced Training Domain (ATD) Training Interface Unit, and Virtual Tactical Bridge Shipboard Radio (VTB-SR) Equipment in accordance with Technical Data Packages.
Engineering: Provide comprehensive engineering and production support for training systems. This includes developing and reviewing technical documentation, identifying and addressing material obsolescence, managing engineering changes (ECPs), generating trouble reports for hardware and software, and documenting any deficiencies when configurations cannot be met. Provide engineering support to update and maintain the Government-Furnished TDPs for all systems.
Tech Support: Provide technical support for inventory, production, and system lifecycle management. This includes receiving, inspecting, cataloging, and tracking parts; maintaining inventory and reporting status; and managing obsolescence to include a Diminishing Manufacturing Sources and Material Shortages (DMSMS) plan and metrics. Support production, testing, creating field change kits, assisting with stock level planning, etc. Integrated Logistics Support (ILS) related technical data, technical publications, and supply support analyses (such as technical manuals, maintenance procedures/instructions, and other documentation).
Warehousing: Estimated 8,000 square feet, climate controlled with protection from extreme heat, cold, moisture, humidity, and other environmental conditions (such as mold and mildew). The building must be insured against natural and man-made disaster. Accessible for delivery of palleted and un-palleted items of weights up to 800 lbs. and 84” in height. The storage area must be secured with access control system.
The Navy estimates that the combined engineering support efforts will constitute less than twenty percent (<20%) of the total contract value.
2.2. Key Technical Requirements
Build to Print alignment to Technical Data Packages (TDP), 365 days’ time to build
Testing: All delivered systems must pass Government-furnished operational and functional tests.
Engineering Change Proposal: Support engineering changes, drawing updates, and other functional areas as required.
Military Specifications and Ruggedization: Systems must adhere to various military specifications, Electromagnetic Interference (EMI), shock and vibration, ship alteration updated standards

Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA), on behalf of Program Executive Office Integrated Warfare Systems 1.0 (PEO IWS 1.0), is conducting market research regarding the production and engineering of the Navy’s Total Ship Training Capability (TSTC) systems. The government anticipates a future requirement for a contractor to provide build-to-print production, systems engineering, hardware procurement, testing, maintenance, warehousing, and logistics for U.S. Navy ships, Foreign Military Sales, and shore sites. This effort involves the delivery of the AN/T46 Battle Force Tactical Training (BFTT) suite, the AN/T52 Advanced Training Domain (ATD) Training Interface Unit, and Virtual Tactical Bridge Shipboard Radio (VTB-SR) equipment. The potential ordering period for these requirements is expected to run from Fiscal Year 2028 through 2033.
The scope of work includes comprehensive project management and the manufacturing of standard products customized for specific shipboard configurations. Contractors will manage configuration, material obsolescence, and technical documentation while maintaining approximately 8,000 square feet of climate-controlled, secured warehousing space. Technical requirements include adherence to military specifications for shock, vibration, and electromagnetic interference, with a standard 365-day build time per system. This special notice, classified under NAICS 334111 Electronic Computer Manufacturing and PSC 6930 Operation Training Devices, is facilitated by the U.S. Secret Service and includes no set-aside designations.
An Industry Day was held on May 7, 2026, in Washington, DC, to discuss these requirements and assess industry capabilities. Following the event, the government provided two attachments: the Industry Day Presentation Briefing Slides and a list of registered organizations. Although the event has concluded, the original response deadline for registration was May 1, 2026. John Sullivan is the primary point of contact for this notice.
