About this opportunity
The Department of the Navy Naval Supply Systems Command is soliciting proposals for a Small Craft Operator Course to train personnel from Underwater Construction Team Two (UCT-2) in boat operation skills and tactics. The procurement seeks qualified contractors to provide a comprehensive three-week training program covering basic and advanced boat operator skills, tactics, techniques, and technical knowledge for multiple small craft types including 7 Meter Rigid Hull Inflatable Boats, 9 Meter Multi-Purpose Expeditionary Response Craft, 36 Foot Dive Support craft, and Combat Rubber Raiding Craft. Contractors must provide three instructors meeting extensive qualifications including US Coast Guard Masters License, boat captain certification, military training experience, High-Risk Training Instructor qualification, and SECRET clearance. The evaluation will be based on best value considering price, delivery, responsibility determination, and technical acceptability, with contractors required to demonstrate they take no exceptions to the Statement of Work and can fulfill all requirements. Questions must be submitted by June 4, 2025, at 3:00 PM HST, with quotes due by June 6, 2025, at 3:00 PM HST.
This procurement is designated as a 100% Small Business Set-Aside under NAICS code 611710 with a small business standard of $24 million, and the previous contractor was identified as Strategos Consulting, LLC. The contract will be a single, one-time Firm-Fixed Price purchase order with payment processed through Wide Area Workflow, though no specific contract value is disclosed in the solicitation. The training course is scheduled to run from September 8-26, 2025, with a class size ranging from 6-12 students (minimum of 6 required to conduct training, maximum of 12). Performance will take place at Naval Station Port Hueneme, California, where UCT-2 will provide the training vessels and pier access while contractors develop customized curriculum and provide all instructional services. The government will conduct inspection and acceptance at the destination through their technical representative.
