About this opportunity

The United States Marine Corps has issued a Notice of Intent to Award a sole source contract for the MJROTC JLAB Academic Bowl program. This Special Notice, posted on July 21, 2025, announces the agency's intention to award a Firm Fixed Price contract to College Options Foundation, Inc. located in Peachtree, Georgia. The contract will be awarded under FAR Part 12 and Part 13 procedures, specifically utilizing the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b) which allows sole source awards when only one reasonable source is available. The procurement falls under NAICS code 611710 for Educational Support Services and PSC code R699 for Support-Administrative: Other services. The Marine Corps has determined that the circumstances of this contract action justify a sole source approach.

The contract's primary objective is to provide MJROTC units across all branches of the Department of Defense with access to a comprehensive academic bowl competition program. The program includes a three-tiered quiz bowl format competition consisting of two online preliminary rounds and a final championship round, along with ASVAB/SACT/SAT test improvement products for all participating cadets. The contractor must provide complete logistics support for the final live championship round, which will be hosted at a college campus and must include participation from sister services including Army, Navy, and Air Force units. Interested and responsible sources have until July 25, 2025, to submit capability statements, proposals, or quotations for the agency's consideration, despite the stated intention to award on a sole source basis. The Marine Corps will review all submissions received from qualified contractors who demonstrate the ability to deliver this multi-service educational competition program.
