This solicitation, issued under FAR Subpart 12.2 and designated as a combined synopsis/solicitation, seeks firm-fixed-price quotations for a five-day, in-person Metrology Training Course for 20 Quality Assurance Personnel at the SUSPHIP GROTON facility in Groton, Connecticut, scheduled for June 8–12, 2026. The effort is a 100% small business set-aside under NAICS Code 611519 with a size standard of $21 million in annual receipts, and only small businesses may respond.

Proposals will be evaluated first for technical acceptability—assessed as pass/fail on criteria including instructional quality and relevance—and then by price, with technical merit carrying greater weight than cost. Awards will be made without discussions unless determined necessary by the Contracting Officer. All submissions must be emailed to two designated Navy email addresses by 8:00 AM EST on May 15, 2026, with the solicitation number in the subject line, and offerors must maintain active SAM registration to be eligible for award.

Contractual obligations include compliance with MIL-STD-129 for any physical deliveries, adherence to DFARS cybersecurity and supply chain requirements, and full disclosure of organizational conflicts of interest, with all materials developed under this contract becoming Government property. Payment will be processed electronically through WAWF using DoD Financial codes, and the Government retains full authority to inspect, accept, or reject performance at the destination.
