Synthetic Training Environment (STE) Virtual Software (VSW)

Solicitation # STE-VSW-26-0006

The Army Contracting Command - Aberdeen Proving Grounds Orlando Division, on behalf of the Capability Program Executive Simulation, Training, Test & Threat, is issuing a Call for Solutions (CFS) under Army Open Solicitation W9128Z-25-S-A002 for the Synthetic Training Environment (STE) Virtual Software (VSW). The primary objective is to modernize virtual training capabilities by delivering a certifiable Table II virtual collective gate for mounted maneuver units, a combined arms environment with integrated fires, and mounted mission command concurrency. The project emphasizes an open system architecture with published SDKs and APIs to ensure rapid integration of future capabilities and avoid vendor lock-in. The total combined value of all awarded lots is approximately 250 million dollars, with funding structured on a milestone or sprint-to-sprint basis. The procurement is divided into five capability lots, including Common Core Software (Lot 1), Simulation Application Software (Lot 2), and Enterprise Integration Support (Lot 5). A critical organizational conflict of interest restriction prohibits any entity performing on Lot 5 from participating in Lots 1, 2, or 4. The Lot 5 awardee is specifically responsible for providing the physical laboratory facility and network infrastructure in Orlando, Florida, as the government will only provide crew station cockpits and computing equipment as government furnished equipment. Evaluation is based on the speed of delivering the Table II live-fire gate, the velocity to reach initial operational capability for priority combat platforms, and the extent of data rights granted to the government. Solutions were due by September 29, 2026, with anticipated awards for Lots 1, 3, and 5 scheduled for November 13, 2026.
