On September 14, the United States Space Force (USSF) posted a sources sought notice for Space Warfighter Training, Modeling, and Simulation Support. Responses are due by 12:00 p.m. Eastern on October 8.
This Sources Sought notice seeks to identify qualified firms capable of providing comprehensive, non-personal mission support services for the 392d Combat Training Squadron (392 CTS). Under this framework, contractor personnel will deliver core capabilities to plan, integrate, execute, and assess Modeling and Simulation (M&S)-enabled exercises (including SPACE FLAG, FLASH POINT, POLARIS HAMMER, and SPACE SKIES) in support of U.S., joint, and allied warfighters.
To ensure the continuous readiness of USSF, joint and coalition forces, this expertise spans a critical array of warfare domains, including Satellite Communications (SATCOM), Global Positioning Systems (GPS), Electronic Attack (EA), Orbital Warfare (OW), Space Electronic Warfare (SEW), Space Domain Awareness (SDA), Missile Warning (MW), and Offensive Cyber Operations (OCO). Furthermore, contractor personnel will drive operational execution by providing Command and Control (C2) support, intelligence product generation, operations assessments, and lessons learned (L2).
This operational framework is firmly underpinned by robust technical requirements, encompassing full-scope IT and cybersecurity support, systems engineering, configuration management, orbital analysis, and sophisticated M&S for the Distributed Mission Operations Center-Space (DMOC-S) and BattleLab enclaves. Ultimately, these integrated capabilities will be leveraged to design, plan, execute, and assess USSF service-level exercises and advanced mission-focused training.
Support includes programs identified as Sensitive Compartmented Information (SCI) and Special Access Required (SAR) administered under the enhanced security guidelines/procedures authorized by Department of Defense DODI 5200.01 (DoD Information Security Program and Protection of Sensitive Compartmented Information) and AFI 16-1404 (Air Force Information Security Program).
Responses to this announcement are needed to help inform acquisition planning and to identify capable sources. To efficiently and effectively deliver the required supplies/services, it is anticipated that vendors will have specialized experience in large-scale space exercises, complex IT and M&S environments, and managing highly cleared personnel.
