705910451 (TSSP/142) - Instrumented Live Training Area Weapons Effect Simulator (ILT-A) Contractor Logistic Support, Repair and Post Design Services

ILT-A 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. The contract will also allow for further developed instrumentation for Combined Arms Live Fire Exercises (CALFEX) along with potential for future Vehicle Integration. There is also a possibility of expansion of the systems into currently undefined training areas globally. The Contract is for an initial period of two (2) years with the option to extend for a further three (3) years. The initial value of the Contract is £29,593,483.33 ex VAT, and with Costed Options £97,045,304.29 ex VAT. The Contract contains some fixed cost options which are subject to Variation of Price (VOP) and therefore likely to increase the total value.
