About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force Air Combat Command (ACC/A6) is seeking to procure 2,450 CompTIA Security+ Exam Vouchers through a Solicitation Notice (RFQ FA489025Q0005) to support cybersecurity certification requirements for military and civilian personnel. This procurement is mandated by DoD Instruction 8140, which requires personnel in cybersecurity workforce positions to obtain and maintain foundational cybersecurity certifications. The solicitation will be evaluated using a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) method, with award intended to the lowest-priced, technically acceptable quote from an authorized CompTIA product reseller. Offerors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) and Wide Area Workflow (WAWF), and submit a cover letter, company details, and a "Letter of Supply" confirming their authorized reseller status. Quotes are due by 9:00 AM EDT on April 2, 2025, with the government intending to make an award based on initial quote submissions without further negotiations.
The solicitation is not a small business set-aside and will be performed at Langley AFB, VA 23665. The total estimated contract value covers the purchase of exam vouchers at a firm-fixed price, with a required delivery timeline of 14 days after receipt of order. The procurement falls under NAICS category 611420 (Computer Training) and PSC category 7A21 (IT and Telecom - Business Application Software). Market research conducted through multiple Requests for Information and a Sources Sought notice determined that CompTIA is the only brand capable of meeting DoD cybersecurity training requirements. The government has justified this as a sole-source procurement, emphasizing that switching certification brands would incur significant tangible and intangible costs. The solicitation notes that if alternative vendors become available in the future, they would be considered in subsequent procurement efforts.
