National Board On Fire Service Professional Qualifications Inc.

National Board On Fire Service Professional Qualifications Inc. (The Pro Board) is a non-profit organization registered in SAM.gov that specializes in providing professional accreditation and certification services for fire and emergency services. Based in Quincy, Massachusetts, the organization focuses on maintaining high professional standards through third-party validation and accreditation of certification programs, particularly within the Department of Defense (DoD) fire and emergency services sector. The Pro Board's primary service involves issuing virtual seals and accreditation certificates that validate the professional qualifications of fire and emergency service personnel.

The organization has consistently worked with federal agencies, particularly the U.S. Air Force's Air Education and Training Command, to provide ProBoard virtual seals and certification services. Its federal contract awards have been primarily structured as purchase orders and delivery orders, each ranging from $25,000 to $36,810, focused on providing ProBoard virtual seals for the DoD Fire and Emergency Services Certification Program. These contracts have not been set aside for any specific business type, and they involve issuing accreditation seals on certificates for fire and emergency services professionals. The contracts have been awarded without specific set-aside designations, indicating open competition, and have consistently involved the Air Education and Training Command as the primary funding agency.

National Board On Fire Service Professional Qualifications Inc. holds a significant Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) with the U.S. Air Force, valued at $184,050, which allows for the provision of approximately 200,000 ProBoard virtual accreditation seals over a five-year period. This single-award IDC, awarded by the Defense Finance and Accounting Service, enables the organization to issue around 40,000 seals annually and provides an annual membership to the ProBoard certification program. The IDC will be performed at Tyndall Air Force Base and represents a strategic, long-term partnership between the organization and the U.S. Air Force to maintain professional standards in fire and emergency services certification. The contract's ultimate completion date is set for September 10, 2029, demonstrating a sustained commitment to providing certification and accreditation services for federal fire and emergency service professionals.
