Flight Training Services

Florida State College at Jacksonville (FSCJ) is conducting a Request for Proposal (RFP) #2026-18 for Flight Training Services to support its Aviation Center of Excellence Program in Duval County, Florida. The procurement seeks qualified service providers capable of delivering comprehensive flight training services. The RFP specifically indicates that both Part 61 and Part 141 Certified Flight Training Centers are eligible to submit proposals, as clarified in Addendum 1 dated 10/23/2025. Interested vendors must submit their proposals by November 20, 2025, before 2:00 pm EST through the college's Purchasing website. Bidders are required to thoroughly review all RFP documents and follow precise submission instructions, with potential rejection of offers for non-compliance. While specific evaluation criteria are not explicitly detailed in the provided documents, the college appears to be seeking a vendor that can demonstrate comprehensive flight training capabilities and alignment with their educational objectives.

The procurement does not specify any explicit set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. No incumbent vendors or current contractors are mentioned in the available documentation. Similarly, no specific budget range or award value is provided in the RFP materials. The solicitation appears open to any qualified flight training service provider that meets the Part 61 and Part 141 certification requirements. Vendors are strongly encouraged to access the full RFP package on FSCJ's Purchasing website to understand the complete scope of the opportunity. Bidders must acknowledge the RFP addendum, either by signing and returning a copy or by explicitly acknowledging it within their submitted bid proposal. The college's goal seems to be establishing a partnership with a flight training service provider that can effectively support their Aviation Center of Excellence Program's educational and training needs.
