About this opportunity
The U.S. Coast Guard is seeking industry information through a Request for Information (RFI) for MH-60T Full Flight Simulators (FFS) and mobile Operational Training Devices (OTD) to significantly expand their helicopter pilot training capabilities. The Coast Guard requires training devices that meet 14 CFR Part 60 standards and can support mission-specific scenarios including Search and Rescue operations and shipboard landings, with emphasis on cybersecurity compliance, reliability, and scalability. Respondents must provide comprehensive information across 18 detailed questions covering technical capabilities, acquisition and delivery timelines, installation requirements, sustainment logistics, and lifecycle cost estimates. The original RFI deadline was August 13, 2025, but Amendment 1 extended the submission deadline to August 15, 2025, at 5:00 PM EST. Responses must be submitted as PDF documents to specified email addresses, and the Coast Guard encourages participation from small businesses including veteran-owned, women-owned, and disadvantaged businesses.
This pre-solicitation notice does not designate any set-aside requirements and no incumbent contractors are identified in the documentation. The Coast Guard plans to dramatically increase their pilot training throughput from 210 pilots pre-FY2024 to approximately 550 pilots by FY2040, requiring training devices capable of supporting 3,500 annual flight hours by FY2027. The anticipated contract award is planned for FY 25/26 with devices expected to be delivered and operational by FY 27/28. Multiple simulators may be required to meet these expanded training demands, and the Coast Guard is considering new facility construction to house the training devices. While specific contract values are not disclosed, the procurement represents a substantial investment in training infrastructure to support the Coast Guard's long-term pilot training expansion objectives.
