About this opportunity
The US Coast Guard, part of the Department of Homeland Security, has issued a Special Notice for Tower Climbing Safety Training valued at approximately $48,030. This notice serves as an intent to award a sole source contract to Gravitec Systems Inc, located in Poulsbo, Washington, for specialized climbing training certification. The Coast Guard is utilizing FAR 6.302-1 authority to proceed without full and open competition, as Gravitec Systems is identified as the only Coast Guard-approved provider of this specific training. The notice was posted on July 28, 2025, with a due date of July 30, 2025. This acquisition falls under the Professional and Management Development Training NAICS category and Education/Training curriculum development PSC category.
The primary objective of this Special Notice is to procure tower climber and rescue training certification for Coast Guard technicians who will serve as Fall Protection Program Managers or Competent Climbers. The training will cover safe climbing techniques, proper equipment inspection and use, and rescue procedures for masts and towers in accordance with Coast Guard Fall Protection Program requirements. This notice explicitly states it is not a request for proposals or quotations, and no solicitation package will be posted publicly or distributed upon request. The Coast Guard has determined that only two vendors were previously approved for this training through their Shore Infrastructure Logistic Center, but the alternative vendor lacks proper System for Award Management registration. Market research confirmed Gravitec Systems as the sole authorized provider, and the government reserves the right to determine whether future competitive procurements would be in their best interest based on any responses received.
