Training instructor operator services support II

The U.S. Army Contracting Command (ACC-APG) Orlando Contracting Division, on behalf of the Capability Program Executive Office Simulation, Training, Test & Threat (CPE ST3), seeks proposals for continuous instructor and operator support services at 25 Military Service Training Centers across CONUS and OCONUS, with proposals due November 9 at 9:00 AM EDT and questions due October 15 at 11:00 AM EST. The procurement is a 100% small business set-aside, foreclosing competition outside that pool.

This is a single-award Firm Fixed Price Mandatory Minimum Staffing Baseline contract with a base period (March 1, 2027 through February 29, 2028) and four one-year option periods extending through February 28, 2032. The contractor must maintain exactly 110 full-time equivalents across 25 geographically dispersed sites with 100% compliance; staffing below the baseline triggers deductions under FAR 52.246-4. Personnel must hold current medical credentials, including former military medical backgrounds (68W, 18D, Navy NEC 8404, Air Force 4NOX1) or current medical licenses, current NREMT certification at EMT level or higher, and annual BLS certification.

Pricing is based on the Government-provided TRIOSS Pricing Workbook with fully burdened hourly rates adhering to applicable Collective Bargaining Agreements or Service Contract Act wage determinations. Labor rates are fixed for the entire contract life; overhead, G&A, and profit percentages must remain locked across all years. Annual travel is capped at a Government-established non-negotiable plug of $12,000. Cost realism analysis will assess whether proposed rates support staffing retention and meet prevailing wage requirements.

Evaluation uses a best-value trade-off approach: Program Management Plan (significantly more important), Past Performance, and Total Evaluated Price. Offerors must achieve minimum "Acceptable" on the Program Management Plan to remain eligible. Proposals comprise four volumes: Volume I, a maximum 20-slide PowerPoint with 45-minute oral presentation; Volume II, a maximum 5-slide past performance presentation (minimum three examples with prime contractor role on at least two); Volume III, the Government Excel workbook and cost narrative; and Volume IV, a maximum 2-page executive summary, signed SF33, and completed clauses. Oral presentations will be held in-person at ACC-APG Orlando between November 16–24, with attendance limited to five team members per offeror. Proposals remain valid for 120 days. NAICS code is 541990; PSC code is U009.
