About this opportunity
NAVSUP Fleet Logistics Center is conducting market research through this Sources Sought Notice to identify potential contractors capable of providing SANS Cybersecurity Training and GIAC Certification Vouchers for Naval Information Operations Command (NIOC) Georgia. The procurement seeks virtual SANS OnDemand cyber training for 22 Cyber Warfare Technician Sailors across eight specialized courses including Network Penetration Testing, Blue Team Fundamentals, Incident Response, Digital Forensics, and Network Forensics, with corresponding GIAC certification exam vouchers. Contractors must be authorized SANS Institute training partners with instructors holding current GIAC certifications, capable of providing 100% virtual delivery through the OnDemand platform along with electronic course materials and technical support. The government anticipates awarding a firm-fixed price contract and is requesting capability statements from qualified offerors that include company information, CAGE code/UEI, service descriptions, and feedback on pricing stability. Responses are limited to three pages using Times New Roman 12-point font and must be submitted by August 21, 2025, just two days after the notice posting date.
This opportunity is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside under NAICS code 541519 (Other Computer Related Services) with Product Service Code U012 for Information Technology/Telecommunications Training. No incumbent contractors are specifically identified in the notice, suggesting this may be a new requirement or the government is seeking to expand its vendor pool. The estimated contract value is $34 million, representing a significant investment in cybersecurity training capabilities for naval personnel. The contract requires all eight courses to be made available within 90 days of award, with complete training delivery within 120 calendar days, indicating an urgent timeline for enhancing the cyber warfare skills of the 22 participating Sailors. The government will provide network credentials and access tokens while students must supply their own workstations meeting specific technical requirements including 16 GB RAM, dual-core CPU, and reliable 50 Mbps internet connectivity.
