The Department of Justice Bureau of Prisons Field Acquisition Office is seeking vendors to establish a comprehensive Career & Technical Education (CTE) training facility at the Federal Correctional Institution in Atlanta, Georgia. The project involves designing and outfitting a 200,000 square foot two-story building within the facility's secure perimeter to deliver industry-based learning experiences. Vendors must provide industrial-grade equipment, industry-recognized software, and curricula across multiple CTE programs including STEM, energy, audio/visual technology, construction trades, automotive, culinary arts, manufacturing, and welding. The technical requirements are rigorous, demanding 99.9% system uptime, 3-second response times, and help desk support while maintaining compliance with federal security standards such as FISMA, FedRAMP, and NIST. Responses to this Request for Information (RFI) are due by January 15, 2025, at 10:00 AM CST, with submissions to be sent to sburke@bop.gov.

The contract opportunity is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside, indicating it is restricted to small business vendors. The CTE program aims to facilitate industry-recognized certifications from organizations like MSSC, NCCER, SACA, and NOCTI, with each training lab capable of accommodating 10-15 students simultaneously. While specific award values are not disclosed in the pre-solicitation notice, the comprehensive nature of the project suggests a significant investment in educational infrastructure and technology. The final solicitation will be posted on SAM.gov, providing further details about the procurement process. The project represents a substantial opportunity for small businesses specializing in educational technology, equipment provision, and technical training solutions within a secure correctional environment.
