About this opportunity

The United States Marine Corps is conducting a Request for Information (RFI) for custom electronic music sound design services specifically for "The Commandant's Own" United States Marine Drum & Bugle Corps "Music in Motion" program. The agency seeks an industry expert with extensive musical credentials to design custom brass arrangements for bugles pitched in the key of "G", a unique requirement that cannot be sourced commercially. Qualified contractors must possess a minimum of a Master's degree in music, demonstrated experience designing for championship-level Drum Corps International (DCI) ensembles, and have previously served as a Brass Caption Head. The RFI requires potential contractors to generate five musical arrangements by October 1, provide bi-weekly consultations, and conduct on-site performance consultations in January and February. While this is currently a pre-solicitation notice and not an official solicitation, interested parties must submit their information by May 23, 2025.

The opportunity is set aside for total small businesses and is categorized under NAICS code 512290 for Other Sound Recording Industries. The contract is structured as a Firm-Fixed Price (FFP) with potential performance periods spanning five years from July 2025 to June 2030. Contractors will be responsible for all travel expenses, with performance locations including Marine Barracks in Washington, DC and MCAS Yuma, AZ. Deliverables will include original brass music arrangements, quarterly revisions, and digital music files compatible with Sibelius software. The contract will require attendance at design meetings in Washington, DC, and the successful contractor must demonstrate the capability to meet the Marine Corps' specialized musical arrangement needs. While specific award values are not disclosed in the pre-solicitation notice, the comprehensive requirements suggest a specialized and potentially significant contract opportunity for a highly qualified music design professional.
