About this opportunity
Marine Corps Installations East has issued a Special Notice announcing its intent to sole source a Joint Network Analysis and Targeting, Seven-Day - Planners (JNAT-P7) course from Obsidian Solutions Group, LLC under FAR 13.106-1(b)(1)(i) for purchases not exceeding the simplified acquisition threshold. The procurement is justified under 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1) as only one source is reasonably available due to restrictive rights in the training materials. The notice was posted on July 15, 2025, and is classified under NAICS code 611699 for miscellaneous schools and instruction. This is not a request for competitive quotes and no solicitation will be issued. The Marine Corps will conduct this procurement on a sole source basis unless compelling evidence suggests otherwise.
The purpose of this Special Notice is to inform the contracting community of the Marine Corps' intent to procure specialized training services while providing an opportunity for small businesses to demonstrate their capability to meet the requirement. Any small business that believes it can fulfill the requirement must submit a written capability statement with supporting evidence to Adam Klawitter at adam.klawitter@usmc.mil by July 25, 2025. The sole source justification is based on Obsidian Solutions Group's proprietary rights to training materials developed for the JNAT program since 2015, including copyrighted materials such as the Network Engagement Reference Guide and Program-Operational Planning Team Advisor Playbook. The training course is designed for unit planners and includes instruction for 4-28 students with operational planning team components. Interested firms must be registered in the System Award Management (SAM) database to be eligible for any potential award, and the government will not reimburse costs associated with preparing capability statements.
