Organizations must become flexible solution providers and adapt to the adversaries’ new methods. To accomplish this, personnel should have advanced training and Mode 1, Mode 5 and Mode 6 certification that allows maximum adaptability in order to meet a constantly changing operational environment. This advanced curriculum must be well defined, and be available to address immediate and future mission requirements.

1.3 Objectives: Soldiers that belong to 10TH Special Forces Group (Airborne) require a contracted Ground Mode Certification course in order to support a full training curriculum to meet the minimum of the National Security Agency (NSA) office of Tradecraft and Compliance (T&C) Mode 1, Mode 5 and Mode 6 certification requirements. This requirement includes developed courses, and implementation, to include course guides and related student materials. 10th SFG (A) envisions training occurring through a 2-week course. It is the

Government’s intent to award the 2-week training classes to a company that offers unique capabilities tailored to meet existing and emerging threats by delivering a 2-week course of instructions containing similar blocks of instruction.

Successful operators will have seasoned instructors and be able to train on site at 10th SFG(A), Fort Carson CO. and be immediately capable of meeting solicitation requirements.

1.4 Scope: Contractor shall provide the necessary services to support 10th SFG(A) in the task areas specified in Part 5 of this contract. Contractor will provide instruction that is unique to the Special Operations, and SIGINT Support.

Due to the sensitive nature of 10th SFG (A) operations, training will be designed specifically for advanced SIGINT operations; techniques employed will be considered sensitive and will not be released to the public. Contractor will provide SI personnel basic through advanced training that includes best practices. The final, approved course curriculum will include instructor guides, student guides, and course evaluation questionnaires. The NSA Office: T&C approved program of instruction (POI) will certify 10th SFG(A) SIGINT soldiers in MODE 1, 5 and 6 and allow them to operate effectively when supporting SOF SIGINT missions in a variety of unique operational environments. Since this POI is a critical component of SOF SIGINT capabilities, contractor will be required to use an established and uniquely qualified instructor staff having demonstrated Special Operations experience combined with demonstrated experience instructing courses to students that were similar to this course and its prospective students.
