Description

This Special Notice is to advise interested members of the Training and Readiness Accelerator II (TReX II), as well as other interested members within the U.S. technology base, that a Request for Solutions (RFS) has been issued by Advanced Technology International (ATI) for RED-26-08-001: Training Risk Assurance, Compliance, and Evaluation (TRACE) System Prototype Project.

The purpose of the TReX II is to spur innovative development, demonstration, and expedited delivery of prototypes to increase Warfighter readiness via modeling, simulation, education/training, experimental validation, and military readiness focused projects. A consortium has been established to develop prototypes directly relevant to enhancing the mission effectiveness of military personnel and the supporting platforms, systems, components, or materials proposed to be acquired or developed by the Department of Defense (DoD), or to improvement of platforms, systems, components, or materials in use by the Armed Forces. This RFS is issued under the TReX II OTA in support of the Director of the Department of Defense (DoD) Test Resource Management Center (TRMC).

Please note that any projects awarded in response to the RFS will include the following statement relative to the potential for follow-on production:

"In accordance with 10.U.S.C. 4022(f), and upon a determination that the prototype project for this transaction has been successfully completed, this competitively awarded prototype OTA may result in the award of a follow-on production contract or non-procurement transaction without the use of competitive procedures."

Interested parties are directed to https://www.trexii.org/ to obtain information regarding this Request for Solutions. Interested parties are required to be members of the TReX II in order to respond to the solicitation. Interested parties who are not members and interested in becoming members should contact TReXII@ati.org. Only members of the TReX II consortium can respond to the solicitation.
