PSPC and DND are seeking additional information and feedback from vendors to help define the next phase of the Weapons Effect Simulation Modernization requirement. The notice refers to earlier WESM RFI/LOI notices, suggesting this may be part of an ongoing market-engagement process. **Potential relevance:** This appears potentially relevant to businesses with experience in defence training systems, weapons-effects modelling, simulation software, systems integration, military technology, testing, or related research and development. The available summary does not provide enough information to determine the expected capabilities, response format, security requirements, or whether subcontracting or teaming opportunities are available. **Important considerations:** - An RFI generally seeks industry feedback and may not lead directly to a contract. - Carefully review the official notice and all attached documents for submission instructions, mandatory forms, security requirements, intellectual-property provisions, and any industry day or question deadlines. - Confirm whether this notice replaces, supplements, or follows the earlier WESM notices identified in the description.
