NSWCPD STEM Camp

The Naval Surface Warfare Center Philadelphia (NSWCPD) has issued a Special Notice for "NSWCPD STEM Camp" support services through the Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command. This opportunity is being pursued as a Sole Source contract, meaning the government intends to negotiate exclusively with Jefferson University. The contract falls under the Professional and Management Development Training NAICS category and specifically relates to Education/Training and Curriculum Development. The Special Notice was posted on May 8, 2025, with a response deadline of May 22, 2025. The procurement is being conducted under the authority of Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 13.106-1(b)(1)(i), which allows for single-source solicitation.

The primary objective of this Special Notice is to secure support services for a STEM Camp program through a direct award to Jefferson University. Contractors should note that this is not a competitive procurement, as the government has predetermined Jefferson University as the sole source provider. The opportunity is not set aside for any specific business category, which means standard eligibility rules apply. Interested parties with questions are instructed to contact Jillian Randazzo via email at jillian.randazzo.civ@us.navy.mil, with explicit instructions that no phone calls will be accepted. The contract will involve developing and potentially executing a STEM Camp program, likely focused on providing educational and training experiences in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. Potential contractors should carefully review the FAR provisions referenced in the notice and be prepared to submit documentation that supports the sole source justification.
