THIS IS NOT A NOTICE OF SOLICITATION ISSUANCE, BUT RATHER A REQUEST FOR

INFORMATION (RFI) from industry that will allow the Government to identify interested sources capable of meeting the requirement. The information sought herein is for planning purposes only and shall not be construed as a request for quote (RFQ), request for proposal (RFP), invitation for bid (IFB), or as an obligation or commitment on the part of the Government to acquire any product or service. There shall be no basis for claims against the Government as a result of information submitted in response to the RFI. The Government does not intend to award a contract on the basis of this RFI or otherwise pay for any information submitted by respondents to this request. This notice is for market research purposes only and is not indicative of a full requirement. Should a requirement arise, the full requirement will be detailed in the solicitation.

The essential capabilities outlined in this Sources Sought / RFI are as follows:

Capability Area Required Vendor RFI Responses

On-Site Execution (Fort Bragg, NC)

The Government will provide the training facility located on Fort Bragg, NC. The vendor must demonstrate the ability to deliver the entirety of the training on-site. The vendor must possess the logistical capability and personnel availability to support immediate, daily instruction at Fort Bragg without travel or relocation delays.

Specialized SOF & JNAT Expertise

The vendor must provide evidence that their Instructors and Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) possess extensive Special Operations Forces (SOF) backgrounds and direct, verifiable experience executing the Joint Human Domain Integration/JNAT program.

Tactical-Level SOF Integration

The vendor must prove they possess a mature, comprehensive curriculum that goes beyond standard commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) training. Responses must show the ability to conduct tactical-level scenario development, exercise design, and practical application specifically for SOF units.

Dynamic Regional Tailorability

The vendor must demonstrate how their methodologies and curriculum can be immediately adapted to specific Geographic Combatant Command (GCC) regions and emerging 95th CA BDE mission sets without requiring a lengthy curriculum development phase.

Immediate Execution (No Ramp-Up)

Due to urgent mission readiness requirements tied to Joint Requirements Oversight Council (JROCM) directives, the vendor must demonstrate the capacity to begin execution immediately upon contract award, with fully developed coursework and qualified personnel on hand.

Security Clearances (Facility & Personnel)

The vendor must possess an active Secret Facility Clearance (FCL) at the time of submission. Assigned personnel must possess an active Secret clearance and maintain eligibility for Top Secret (TS) to satisfy Alternative Compensatory Control Measures (ACCM) access requirements.

Current market research shows that there is only one vendor capable of fulfilling the requirement. However, it is the Government’s intent to include responses to this Sources Sought when making its final determination to negotiate on a sole source basis.

INTERESTED SOURCES CAPABLE OF FULFILLING THIS REQUIREMENT shall submit documentation addressing all required elements listed herein; providing only a reference to a website is unacceptable for purposes of this announcement and will not be considered or reviewed.
