About this opportunity

The United States Marine Corps is seeking to procure close quarters combat training services for 18 Marines, scheduled for January 13-15, 2026, at a specialized facility. The procurement includes a three-day training program with on-site lodging and meals provided by the vendor. This is a sole source acquisition, meaning the government has determined that only one source is reasonably available to meet the stated requirements. The evaluation criteria emphasize the unique characteristics of the training venue, particularly its Close Quarter Tactics (CQT) facilities, proper ammunition storage capabilities, proximity to the 3d Force Headquarters, and comprehensive on-site accommodations. The pre-solicitation notice was posted on December 16, 2025, with a deadline for responses by December 26, 2025.

The contract opportunity is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside, restricting competition to small business concerns. The MID-SOUTH INSTITUTE has been identified as the sole source contractor, as it is the only training facility within reasonable driving distance to 3d Force HQ that possesses the required combination of advanced CQT capabilities, ammunition storage facilities, and on-site lodging and meal services. The procurement is being processed under the Simplified Acquisition Threshold as a FAR Part 13 acquisition. While the specific contract value is not disclosed in the pre-solicitation notice, the scope involves training for 18 personnel with a three-day facility use, on-site accommodations, and meals included in the vendor's deliverables.
