About this opportunity
The Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is seeking a contractor to provide comprehensive, live online instructor-led Python training services under a firm-fixed-price contract. The procurement is driven by the Consumer Safety Technology Act and the CPSC's 2025 Generative AI Use Policy, which requires advanced analytics capabilities to identify hazards and track injury trends. The contractor must deliver a four-module curriculum covering Python fundamentals, machine learning, deep learning, and web scraping & automation, with specialized content in statistical analysis, natural language processing, large language model integration, computer vision, and data engineering. Key requirements include delivering all instruction via Microsoft Teams with recorded sessions for internal agency use, providing comprehensive course materials including slides, scripts, practice datasets, and course notes, and accommodating training for multiple participant levels ranging from IT specialists to senior leaders. The Pre-solicitation Notice was posted on February 12, 2026, with a deadline of March 4, 2026, though the notice does not specify separate deadlines for questions or clarifications during the pre-solicitation phase.
The contract carries no set-aside designation and does not identify any current incumbents or existing contractors. The training program targets approximately 105 total participants across the four modules, with Module 1 accommodating 30 participants and Modules 2 through 4 each serving 25 participants. The schedule requires Module 1 to run 3-5 days, Module 2 to run 3-5 days with a one-week break following Module 1, Module 3 to run 3-5 days with a one-week break following Module 2, and Module 4 to be delivered in a single day. The Pre-solicitation Notice does not disclose the anticipated contract value or budget range, nor does it provide the full anticipated schedule for training delivery, though these details are expected to be included in the formal solicitation document.
