The U.S. Army is conducting market research through a Request for Information (RFI) to identify mature software solutions for a unified Virtual Collective Training Software (VCTS) for battalion-and-below training, with a preference for solutions at Technology Readiness Level (TRL) 8 or near-TRL 8. The effort seeks existing Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS), Government-Off-The-Shelf (GOTS), or hybrid software that can drive or integrate with Reconfigurable Virtual Collective Trainer (RVCT) hardware and other virtual training peripherals. No budget information is specified in this RFI, and the location for performance of services is not mentioned. The Army aims to validate requirements and assess industry capabilities before releasing a formal Request for Solution (RFS), which is targeted for the third quarter of fiscal year 2026. Responses are due by 12:00 PM EDT on June 25, 2026, and should address areas such as product maturity, architecture, scalability, and intellectual property.
