Wilderness first aid and first responder training

The Washington State Department of Ecology (ECOLOGY) is issuing a Request for Quotation/Qualification (RFQQ) 2606 SEA for Wilderness First Aid and First Responder Training services targeting Washington Conservation Corps members and staff across multiple counties, including Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, and Yakima Counties. The procurement seeks a single qualified training provider to deliver comprehensive in-person, instructor-led medical and safety training covering basic First Aid, Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR), Blood Borne Pathogens (BBP), Wilderness Advanced First Aid (WAFA), and Wilderness First Responder (WFR) certifications. The training must precisely meet ECOLOGY's specific scheduling parameters and ensure conservation corps personnel are fully prepared for potential medical emergencies in outdoor work environments. The solicitation was posted on October 23, 2025, with proposals due by December 18, 2025. While specific evaluation criteria are not explicitly detailed in the available documentation, the procurement appears to prioritize a vendor's ability to provide flexible, high-quality, and comprehensive medical training aligned with the organization's specific needs.

The procurement does not specify explicit set-aside designations or restrictions on respondent organizations. No information is provided about incumbent vendors or existing contractors, and there are no noted requirements for technological infrastructure integration. The document similarly lacks specific budget ranges or potential award values for the training services. The training will be delivered across multiple Washington counties, suggesting a potentially broad implementation scope for the selected vendor. The focus appears to be on selecting a training provider capable of delivering specialized medical and wilderness safety instruction to conservation corps members, with an emphasis on practical, in-person training that meets specific organizational safety and preparedness standards.
