Arctic Medical Subject Matter Expertise Service

The United States Special Operations Command (USSOCOM) is seeking a highly specialized medical training contractor to provide Arctic Medical Subject Matter Expertise services from July to September 2025. The contract requires an Emergency Medical Physician with a Diploma in Mountain Medicine to train Special Operations medical personnel, including Independent Duty Corpsmen, Fleet Marine Force Corpsmen, and Special Operations Tactical Medics in critical arctic and austere environment medical skills. Training will be conducted in static and dynamic environments around Mt. Vernon and Mt. Baker, Washington, and Peterson Space Force Base and Ft. Carson, Colorado. The contractor must demonstrate comprehensive capabilities in Tactical Combat Casualty Care, Prolonged Field Care, and Arctic Clinical Practice Guidelines. The pre-solicitation notice was posted on April 25, 2025, with proposal responses due by May 16, 2025, indicating a relatively short response window for potential bidders.

The contract is not designated with any specific set-aside classification and falls under the NAICS category 611430 for Professional and Management Development Training. The training will cover extensive medical challenges specific to arctic environments, including biodefense and permafrost risks, with a requirement to provide Continuing Education Units (CEUs) for participants. While specific award values are not disclosed in the pre-solicitation notice, the contract appears to be a specialized, high-skill training engagement focusing on advanced medical preparedness for Special Operations personnel operating in extreme arctic conditions. The training program will span approximately three months, targeting medical professionals who need advanced skills in mountaineering, avalanche and crevasse rescue, and medical treatment in challenging environmental conditions. The comprehensive nature of the training suggests a rigorous and technically demanding contract opportunity for highly qualified medical professionals with specific mountaineering and arctic medical expertise.
