Contract Award: US Army National Training Center (NTC) Training Services Contract (TSC) Bridge II

Notice ID: W900KK-25-R-0005

Army Contracting Command-Orlando (ACC-ORL) has identified a need to award a sole source, fixed price contract to VERTEX AEROSPACE (V2X), (CAGE 1P066), to continue to perform the National Training Center (NTC) Training Services Contract (TSC) requirement. The anticipated contract is needed to ensure the continued support of the NTC prior to the award of the National Training Center (NTC) Mission Support Services (MSS) contract.  Services performed under this sole source action will include continuation of the non-personal services covered under the previous Contract (W900KK-24-C-0025) to provide support predominantly to units participating in training rotations at the NTC, Fort Irwin California, as defined in the relevant performance work statement.  The Government shall not exercise any supervision or control over the personnel performing the services herein. Such contract service provider shall be accountable solely to the Contractor who, in turn is responsible to the Government. The Contractor shall provide all personnel, manage Government equipment, supplies, facilities, materials, supervision, and other items and non-personal services necessary to support the operation of the NTC as defined in the PWS.

No other contractor is in the position to assemble a large diverse team of administrative, program management, professional civilians on the battlefield (PROCOB) and subject matter experts (SMEs) who specialize in providing realistic, integrated training, by the expiration of the current NTC TSC performance period (30 April 2025).  Award to anyone other than the current contractor (Vertex) would result in a significant break in service and unacceptable delays in fulling the agency’s needs and requirements.  The award of this limited Bridge Contract will ensure ample time for the Government team to complete necessary acquisition and source selection activities and execute award of the follow-on NTC MSS contract.
