This is a Solicitation Amendment (Amendment 0004) issued by NAVSUP Fleet Logistics Center Norfolk on behalf of the Department of Navy to extend a deadline and implement several substantive changes to an ongoing competitive acquisition.

The amendment extends the closing date for proposal submissions from May 5, 2026 to May 15, 2026 at 4:00 PM EDT. The solicitation seeks multiple task order contracts for educational services through an Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract with a preestablished maximum ceiling of $342,000,000. The Government intends to award up to 15 contracts to multiple sources, though it reserves the right to award fewer or additional sources based on its best interest determination. The contract will consist of a five-year base ordering period commencing August 1, 2026, plus one optional six-month extension period. Pricing will be evaluated on credit hour rates, applicable fees, materials, and fully burdened rates for program management and IT Data Support CLINs, ensuring fair evaluation regardless of the number of programs an offeror provides. Evaluation will occur in two phases: Phase I assesses institutional characteristics (accreditation and regional accreditation maintenance); Phase II evaluates performance approach, academic capabilities (up to 18 distinct academic fields with maximum 54 pages), and past performance (three relevant contracts within the past five years). Proposals must be submitted electronically in two separate volumes: Volume I (non-price proposal, maximum 73 pages) and Volume II (price proposal). All proposals must address institutional accreditation requirements, describe a forward-looking performance approach, demonstrate academic program capabilities through detailed forms, and provide past performance references with specific contract details and relevance explanations.
