The Department of Commerce, through the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), is conducting market research via a Sources Sought Notice to identify potential providers capable of delivering annual recurrent flight training for NOAA aircraft. This is not a solicitation or commitment to award a contract but aims to gather information on business capabilities related to certified flight simulator and classroom training for specific NOAA platforms, including the WP-3D Orion, G-IVSP, and Gulfstream G550. The notice emphasizes the need for consistent training curriculum across platforms, the ability to develop new courses as mission needs evolve, management of last-minute personnel substitutions without financial loss to the government, and ensuring reliable scheduling to prevent mission disruption. Interested vendors must submit a detailed statement of capabilities, limited to ten pages, that includes company profile data such as UEI, NAICS code (611512), business size, applicable GSA schedules, and SBA small business or socio-economic status if applicable. Specific questions must be addressed to demonstrate how the vendor meets the required training and operational needs. Responses are due by 12:00 PM ET on March 13, 2026, and must be sent electronically to NOAA contracting officials designated as primary and secondary points of contact. This market research will inform potential procurement strategies but does not guarantee contract award, and firms interested in subcontracting opportunities are encouraged to pursue relationships independently.
