About this opportunity

The Federal Bureau of Investigation's Cyber Division (CyD), Cyber Education and Training Unit (CETU) is seeking comprehensive cyber training services for law enforcement personnel conducting computer intrusion investigations. The procurement aims to deliver formal training courses across multiple cyber disciplines, including Cyber Security, Intrusion Detection, Open-Source Intelligence, Digital Forensics, Network Analysis, Penetration Testing, and AI/Machine Learning. Current market research indicates the FBI wants training that provides both theoretical and hands-on learning experiences, with meaningful assessment methods and industry-recognized certifications. The Request for Information (RFI) was released on January 29, 2025, with responses due by February 13, 2025, and seeks vendors capable of providing virtual and in-person training options. Evaluation will likely focus on technical capabilities, course catalog depth, training progression roadmaps, hands-on training capabilities, and reporting/dashboard functionality.

The contract is structured as a Firm Fixed Price vehicle with a five-year performance period from July 13, 2025, to July 12, 2030, targeting training for 500-600 students annually. There are no specific small business set-asides for this opportunity, and potential contractors will need to demonstrate capabilities across various cyber training domains. While no specific award value was disclosed, the contract will require delivery of two key documents: a draft Performance Work Statement and a draft Quality Assurance Plan. Contractors must be prepared to continuously update course content to reflect emerging technological advances and provide training for both FBI employees and federally deputized Task Force Officers. Interested vendors should have appropriate NAICS coding (611420 - Computer Training), relevant business credentials, and potentially hold GSA Schedule contracts to be competitive in this procurement.

Update #2 · Latest ·

The Cyber Division (CyD), Cyber Education and Training Unit (CETU) is tasked with providing training to law enforcement
personnel who conduct computer intrusion investigations. CETU's priority is to identify and deliver core cyber training and
continuing education offerings for the Cyber Investigators. CETU provides a combination of internal FBI courses in conjunction
with external contractor classes to ensure that Cyber Investigators (FBI Employees and Federally deputized Task Force Officers)
obtain necessary skills to investigate complex cyber matters.

Please follow the instructions on the attached RFI document and complete both tabs of the technical questions. 

RFI Questions & Answers:

Question 1. Provide a roadmap of what order of your courses will guide a student from novice to expert. Are you looking for role base training and if so, do you have any current examples of those roles?

Answer: Not necessarily. The FBI will conduct its own internal role-based training specific to FBI scenarios. The FBI is looking to establish proficient technical foundations via 3rd party training in order to support more efficient internal, FBI-specific training.

Question 2: Do you need any cyber industry certifications and if so, do the contractors or instructors need to be certified?

Answer: The FBI requires that courses end with assessment of some sort (certification or otherwise) that can be reported to FBI’s Program Managers for recording increased technical proficiency in students. The FBI expects technical proficiency in vendors’ instructors/contractors, which may be demonstrated by exceptional career record or certifications.

Question 3: This RFI was posted on eBuy today as RFQ1742765 with a link to GSA MRAS. The RFI on GSA MRAS asks for past performance while this RFI asks not to submit past performance. Can you clarify?

Answer: Past performance is not required for RFI submission.
