Synopsis MACE and ARMOR Software Licenses

The Department of Defense, through the MICC at Fort Eustis, Virginia, intends to award a sole-source, firm-fixed-price contract to Battlespace Simulations, Inc. (BSI) for the procurement of proprietary commercial software licenses. The acquisition focuses on the Modern Air Combat Environment (MACE) and Augmented Reality Mission Observation and Rehearsal (ARMOR) software suites. These tools are required by the Aviation Capabilities, Development, and Integration Directorate (ACDID) to provide simulation support for Concept Focused Warfighting Experimentation and requirements determination studies for Launched Effects, specifically for aircraft combat forensic analysis. The procurement is categorized under NAICS code 513210 and PSC 7K20. While the contract value is not explicitly stated, it is noted to exceed 25,000 dollars but remain below the Simplified Acquisition Threshold. The licenses are governed by the BSI End User License Agreement and must meet specific combat simulation, stimulation, and mission rehearsal interoperability parameters. Although this is a notice of intent to sole source and not a request for competitive proposals, interested parties may submit capability statements to Phoenix Fluker by the response deadline of September 12, 2026, to demonstrate their legal and technical ability to provide genuine BSI licenses.
