T'ann Perrault

T’ann Perrault serves as a key procurement lead within the Naval Air Warfare Center Training Systems Division (N61340), overseeing the acquisition of advanced simulation, avionics, and immersive training systems critical to naval aviation readiness. Responsible for managing complex contract vehicles supporting pilot and aircrew training modernization, Perrault specializes in high-fidelity tactical training solutions, mission rehearsal environments, and integrated avionics infrastructure. Their work directly supports the Department of the Navy’s strategic imperative to sustain and upgrade next-generation training capabilities across maritime aviation platforms, ensuring operational readiness through cutting-edge simulation technologies. Perrault maintains consistent partnerships with leading training systems integrators, most notably STRACON SERVICES GROUP, LLC and FLIGHTSAFETY INTERNATIONAL INC, both of which provide specialized simulation hardware, curriculum development, and live-virtual-constructive (LVC) training solutions. These relationships reflect a preference for established industry partners with proven expertise in military aviation training systems, while maintaining flexibility for emerging technologies and adaptive training architectures. Procurement activities emphasize performance-based contracting, systems integration, and lifecycle sustainment support. A defining feature of Perrault’s contracting approach is the exclusive use of Total Small Business Set-Asides under FAR 19.5, reflecting a robust commitment to socioeconomic diversity in the defense training ecosystem. Every acquisition is structured to prioritize small business participation, ensuring equitable access for firms with niche capabilities in simulation software, training device maintenance, and curriculum design. This pattern underscores a deliberate strategy to cultivate innovation through agile, responsive small vendors. While NAICS data is not currently available, Perrault’s portfolio consistently targets technical domains related to aviation training systems, including simulation and modeling, avionics integration, and immersive learning technologies. The focus lies on mission-critical systems that replicate real-world flight environments, emphasizing interoperability, data fidelity, and rapid reconfiguration for evolving threat scenarios.
