The U.S. Coast Guard is seeking to procure Spanish Language Training services specifically aimed at enhancing language proficiency for Coast Guard personnel assigned to interpreter roles. The procurement is planned as a sole source acquisition, targeting ILISA INSTITUTO DE IDIOMAS, DE LA IGLESIA located in San Pedro Montes de Oca, Costa Rica, under the authority of FAR 6.302. While this notice is not a request for competitive proposals, the government is open to considering any expressions of interest or capability to meet the requirement within a forty-five-day window (or thirty days if the contract is awarded under an existing basic ordering agreement). Any responses received will be used to determine whether a competitive procurement process should be initiated, but the decision to proceed solely with the proposed sole source contract remains at the discretion of the government. This contract action is categorized under NAICS code 611630, which pertains to language training services, and will be managed by the Headquarters Contract Operations (CG-912) office within the Department of Homeland Security, based in Washington, DC. Ms. Myra Freeman is the designated purchasing agent for this procurement and can be contacted for further information. The nature of the work and place of performance are not specifically detailed beyond the language training focus, and the government emphasizes that this synopsis serves primarily as a notice of intent rather than a solicitation for competitive bids.
