About this opportunity
U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), specifically the Air and Marine Operations (AMO) Office of Training, Safety and Standards, is conducting market research to identify industry capabilities for comprehensive aircraft pilot training services. The procurement seeks suppliers capable of providing training for multiple rotor wing and fixed wing aircraft, including specific models like AS-350, DHC-8, KA-200, KA-350, KA-360, PC-12, and UH-60 helicopters. Training requirements encompass initial, recurrent, and differences courses that must strictly comply with FAA regulations and be conducted on U.S.-registered aircraft or simulators. Potential suppliers must demonstrate the ability to deliver full training packages that include specialized programs such as maintenance test pilot training, instrument proficiency checks, and night vision goggle training. The RFI responses are due by May 12, 2025, must be electronically submitted to contract specialist Rosalind Lawrence, and are limited to 15 pages of documentation.
The procurement does not have a specific small business set-aside designation, indicating it is open to all qualified contractors. Projected annual training quotas range from 2-106 pilots per course type, covering fiscal years 2026-2030. While specific award values are not disclosed in the pre-solicitation notice, the comprehensive nature of the training requirements suggests a potentially significant contract opportunity. The market research phase suggests CBP is exploring multiple potential training providers to ensure robust and continuous pilot training capabilities across diverse aircraft platforms. All submitted information will be treated as public knowledge, and interested contractors are encouraged to provide detailed capabilities demonstrating their capacity to meet the complex and multi-faceted training requirements outlined in the RFI.
