ASTi awarded Enterprise License Agreement by the US Air Force

Advanced Simulation Technology has been awarded a contract for an Enterprise License Agreement (ELA) by the US Air Force (USAF). The contract provides licensing for ASTi’s Voisus networked voice communications, radio-over-IP (RoIP) bridging and ongoing support services for the Warrior Preparation Center (WPC) in Germany. For over 12 years, ASTi has provided the WPC’s voice communications infrastructure, linking military training facilities across global networks. Voisus products deployed at the WPC cover communications among live-combat aircraft and ground forces, simulators and computer-based staff. Using web browsers, WPC staff can remotely control tactical radios dispersed across Europe.

Recently, the WPC experienced an increase in demand for ASTi voice services to cover communications across multiple, isolated multilevel security (MLS) networks. ASTi offered a subscription-based ELA that distributes licenses across the MLS networks and allows license expansion to meet unforeseen, quick-reaction requirements. The ELA also includes bundled services that ensure operational effectiveness throughout the system’s life, reducing cost without compromising support. ELA services include the following:

• Software and Information Assurance (IA) maintenance

• Training and fielding services in Germany

• Help desk

• Discounted pricing on hardware products and support
