Amendment 0001 - Dover AFB - Catholic Education Coordinator

The Department of the Air Force Air Mobility Command is seeking a Catholic Religious Education Coordinator to manage and instruct the religious education program for all age groups at Dover Air Force Base Chapel in Delaware. The contractor must possess at least two years of experience in Catholic religious education, including teaching and program development, provide documentation of active Catholic status in good standing from their home parish or diocese, and demonstrate understanding of religiously pluralistic environments within the Air Force Chaplain Corps. The position requires approximately 80 hours monthly on average, with a minimum of 15 core hours per week on-site including Sundays. Evaluation will be conducted based on price and technical acceptability using a best value selection process, with technical proposals not exceeding 10 pages addressing experience and the contractor's approach to the role. The offer due date is March 17, 2026 at 2:00 PM, and proposals must be submitted in two parts: Part I (Price Proposal) and Part II (Technical Proposal). Prior market research identified at least three qualified sources, and the contracting officer intends to proceed with an oral solicitation to these identified sources.

This contract opportunity is set aside 100 percent for small businesses, specifically women-owned small businesses (WOSB), under NAICS code 611699 with a size standard of $16,500,000. The contract structure includes a base year from April 1, 2026 through March 31, 2027, four one-year option periods extending through March 31, 2031, and a six-month extension option originally scheduled for April 1, 2031 through September 30, 2031 (though Amendment 0001 has removed the CLIN 5001 period of performance for this extension). The pricing template specifies monthly service delivery across five separate line items, with contractors required to submit unit pricing for each period. Prevailing wage rates apply per Department of Labor Wage Determination 2015-4217, which establishes hourly rates and fringe benefits of $5.55 per hour for service contract work in Kent County, Delaware.
