VSTEP Simulation

VSTEP Simulation is a Dutch developer of professional simulation software and virtual training environments. Within the aerospace value chain, the organisation functions as a Tier 2 or Tier 3 software supplier, focusing on high-fidelity visual engines and functional training tools. Their primary contribution to the sector involves creating integrated environments for ground handling, airport operations, and emergency response training, bridging the gap between maritime safety standards and aviation ground logistics. While the company is prominently recognised for its NAUTIS maritime platform, its aerospace involvement extends to partnerships with civil aviation authorities and private ground service providers. Their software is typically integrated into third-party hardware or used as standalone desktop solutions for procedural training. They provide the underlying simulation logic and visualisations required for airport fire services and aircraft tug operations, often working alongside systems integrators rather than directly with airframe manufacturers. Prospective buyers should verify the specific compatibility of the organisation's software with existing Motion Platform hardware and legacy flight deck interfaces. It is essential to confirm whether a proposed solution carries EASA or national aviation authority certification for specific training credits. Partners should also assess the level of customisation available for specific airport layouts and local regulatory procedures within the simulation environment.
