2026 MentorcliQ Renewal

This Special Notice pertains to NASA's Shared Services Center (NSSC) renewal of a contract for mentoring platform services through MentorcliQ, Inc. Posted on December 11, 2025, the notice announces NASA's intent to award a sole source contract to MentorcliQ of Columbus, Ohio, based on a determination that the company is the sole provider capable of delivering the required renewal service. The procurement is classified under NAICS Code 513210 (Software Publishers) and PSC Code U002 (Education/Training—Personnel Testing). The notice invites interested organizations to demonstrate their capabilities and qualifications as an alternative to the planned sole source award. This synopsis is published under FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(i) procedures for justification and approval of noncompetitive procurements.

The primary objective of this Special Notice is to solicit written capability statements from organizations that believe they can provide equivalent mentoring platform services to demonstrate whether a competitive procurement is warranted. Interested parties must submit their qualifications in writing to Cara Craft (Cara.s.craft@nasa.gov) by December 16, 2025, at 1 p.m. Central Standard Time; oral communications will not be accepted. While no specific eligibility restrictions are stated, all submissions will be evaluated solely to determine whether NASA should conduct the procurement competitively rather than as a sole source award. The underlying contract covers an Enterprise mentoring solution that manages and administers mentoring programs across NASA, including platform subscription and licensing, program configuration, communication planning, training, hosting, maintenance, and support for up to five mentoring programs, with performance based at NASA's Stennis Space Center and MentorcliQ's Columbus office.
