USAWC DDE 1st Year Instructor 2026-2031

The Department of the Army Materiel Command Mission and Installation Contracting Command Fort Eustis seeks one instructor to teach first-year Distance and Distributed Education courses at the United States Army War College, Carlisle Barracks, Pennsylvania, with proposals due June 17 and questions due June 1. This is a Total Small Business Set-Aside with a five-year performance period from July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2031, issued as a Request for Quotation under FAR 12.201-1 (not evaluated under FAR Part 15 procedures).

Key personnel must hold a Senior Service College diploma with Joint Professional Military Education Phase II qualification, a master's degree in relevant disciplines including strategic leadership, national security policy, military history, or civil-military relations, and a minimum five years' faculty experience at a senior service college or accredited graduate institution with at least one year within the past three years. Required technical expertise includes proficiency in Learning Management Systems, Microsoft 365, Microsoft Teams, and familiarity with AI tools. For applicable contract line items, candidates must possess Battlefield Staff Guide knowledge and Gettysburg Civil War history expertise.

Contractors must provide their own Windows-compliant laptop with CAC card reader, camera, microphone, current browsers, and active virus protection. Work is remote with core operating hours 0830–1500 Eastern Monday–Friday; on-site performance comprises 28 days annually. Contractors must complete eight mandatory Department of Defense training courses (non-billable) within 30 days of hire, including Anti-Terrorism Level I, OPSEC Level I, and Information Assurance certifications.

Technical evaluation focuses on Senior Service College and JPME II credentials, educational background, teaching experience, technology expertise, and optional battlefield staff qualifications. Past Performance evaluation requires documentation of relevant contracts completed within the past three years, assessed on recency, relevancy, and quality. Price evaluation applies FAR 12.204 price analysis for technically eligible quotes. Award goes to the responsible offeror with the lowest price, technically eligible quote, and acceptable past performance, without discussions. Quoters may submit one or two individuals; all minimum qualifications apply to each candidate. A concurrent similar RFQ (W91QF025Q1005) exists; vendors may quote the same candidate(s) for both solicitations, with the Government determining which award proceeds if selected for both. Amendment 1 revised the due date to June 17, eliminated certain contract line items across all years, and posted question responses.
