## Summary

The Ministry of Defence, Land Equipment, Training and Simulation Systems Programme (TSSP) in the UK is administering a procurement for the "Area Weapons Effect Simulator (AWES) Support and Repair and Post Design Services". This project falls under the services category, specifically targeting training simulators. The procurement process has recently concluded with an award date of 15th March 2019, and the contract is scheduled to commence on 1st April 2020, lasting until 31st March 2027. The overall value of the contract is £74,305,416.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses in the defence and simulation sectors, particularly those with expertise in contractor logistic support and repair services. Companies that can demonstrate capability in providing complex training systems, especially those aligned with military or defence training, could be well-positioned to compete for similar future tenders. The scale of operations will attract larger firms, but businesses with innovative solutions in training simulation may also find niches in this area.

## Notice

The Training Simulation Systems Programme within Defence Equipment and Support, part of the UK Ministry of Defence (MoD), intends to place with CUBIC DEFENSE APPLICATIONS Inc (CDA) a three-year contract with an additional four one-year option years for the provision of Contractor Logistic Support, Support Repair and Post Design Services for the MoD owned Area Weapons Effect Simulator (AWES). AWES enables the simulation of area effects such as fire missions, danger areas like minefields, and permits the tracking and monitoring of participants (players) while dismounted, in vehicles and structures. The system provides man worn and vehicle instrumentation and an engagement capability for lighter weapons, as part of collective training. It simulates and records the effects of weapon engagements and enables realistic and challenging training.
