Alion to provide US personnel with JTSE
Alion Science and Technology has received a $34.9 million contract from the Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) to provide Joint Training Synthetic Environment (JTSE) for US personnel, the company announced on 21 May.
The Cyber Security MAC IAC indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity, technical area task was awarded by DTIC in support of the Joint Staff J7, Deputy Director Joint Training (DDJT).
Under the contract, Alion will provide a full range of training application design, development and maintenance support to the joint force. The JTSE solution will allow operations and data exchange between simulations, irrespective of their computing platform.
Terri Walker-Spoonhour, senior vice president and head of Alion’s Distributed Simulation Group, said: ‘Our goal is to help the DDJT train the Joint Force using an evolutionary approach to modelling and simulation development and integration that both stabilises legacy solutions and modernises the JTSE.’
