About this opportunity
The United States Marine Corps Forces Special Operations Command (MARFORSOC) is conducting market research to identify qualified contractors capable of providing Whole Marine Program (WMP) support services. This pre-solicitation notice seeks episodic contractor support to augment government efforts and maintain the Whole Marine Program software interface, which is currently operated via GideonSoft Software. The procurement is classified under Custom Computer Programming Services (NAICS 541511) and Education/Training-Other (PSC U099). While this is a market research notice rather than a formal solicitation, it indicates the government's intent to solicit proposals and encourages responses from all interested businesses, particularly small businesses across all socioeconomic categories including 8(a) firms, HUBZone businesses, service-disabled veteran-owned enterprises, and women-owned small businesses. Interested firms should submit their capability statements by November 18, 2025, to be considered in the government's market research phase. The notice does not yet provide specific evaluation criteria but signals that the actual solicitation will follow this research period.
No set-aside designations have been applied to this procurement opportunity at this stage. The current contractor operating the Whole Marine Program software is GideonSoft Software, representing the incumbent system that will require ongoing maintenance and support. The contract will commence on March 14, 2026, and extend through March 15, 2027 as the base year, with four optional one-year extension periods running through March 15, 2030, providing potential for up to five years of performance. The pre-solicitation notice does not specify an explicit budget range or award value, as this is a market research phase intended to gauge contractor capabilities and recommend ways to structure the requirement to facilitate small business participation. Respondents are also encouraged to suggest approaches for improving competition among small business concerns and to identify any conditions that might impede small business participation in this opportunity.
