Advanced Pilot Training Maintenance Training Systems

This contract notice relates to the Advanced Pilot Training Maintenance Training Systems (MTS) and serves primarily to provide a matrix of U.S. Government responses to industry comments on the Draft System Requirements Document (SRD) released in October 2017. It includes question-and-answer exchanges from one-on-one sessions with industry representatives held in November 2017 during the Interservice/Industry Training, Simulation and Education Conference (I/ITSEC). The intent is to offer industry a clearer understanding of the MTS requirements and facilitate further dialogue, although the government does not require formal industry responses to this particular posting. The document also states that responses to industry feedback may or may not be incorporated into future revisions of the SRD, and the government reserves discretion over which comments to address. Importantly, this notice does not constitute a request for proposals or an intent to award a contract; it functions as a sources-sought or market research effort to engage industry and gather input. The solicitation is categorized under NAICS code 336413, which covers aerospace product and parts manufacturing. The contracting officer for this effort is Kerisha R. Wordlaw, and future follow-up questions from industry are invited via a designated contracting mailbox. Overall, this posting facilitates transparency and communication between the government and potential industry partners regarding the specific training system requirements but does not initiate a formal procurement action.
