Neck and Back Prehabilitation Training Program Development

The contract seeks the design and development of a science-based, injury-prevention fitness curriculum specifically tailored for fighter aircrew, with emphasis on neck and back strengthening, core stability, mobility, and operational fitness. The program must be grounded in current physiological and biomechanical research to effectively mitigate the physical stresses unique to high-G flight environments and reduce the incidence of musculoskeletal injuries among pilots. The deliverables will include comprehensive training protocols, instructional materials, and assessment tools aligned with military operational requirements and validated through measurable outcomes. The contract is issued as a subcontract under NAICS code 611620, indicating a focus on other schools and instruction services, with the performance location set at JBPHH, Hawaii, and a response deadline of August 5, 2026. This initiative is sponsored by the Department of Defense through the W7M4 Uspfo Activity Hiang 154, underscoring its importance in sustaining aircrew readiness and reducing long-term medical liabilities. While no set-aside provisions are specified, the solicitation is open to qualified entities capable of delivering evidence-based, scalable fitness solutions for high-risk military aviation populations.
