The FAA Flight Program Operations Aircrew Training group and Aircrew Standards group has new a requirement for online content to support non-aircraft specific crewmember 14 CFR 135 Initial and Recurrent Training development and delivery. Contractual services are anticipated to be conducted for the FAA for one year with 4 one-year options. This market survey should identify qualified and capable sources that can provide the services described in the attached Performance Work Statement. The draft Performance Work Statement (PWS), is provided as an attachment to this market survey to inform and assist interested vendors with regard to the work required. However, interested respondents are cautioned that the Government at its discretion may update and or revise this PWS for any potential contract or request for proposal. At this time, the acquisition strategy and nature of competition has not been determined for any potential contract. The Government welcomes statements of interest and capabilities from all businesses, which are capable of providing the required items/services. However, contract performance has historically been performed by a large business. Depending on responses to this survey and analysis of market research collected, the Government may, at its discretion, decide to pursue a full and open competition or set-aside all or part of the procurement. THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS OR OFFERS. A SIR/Request for Offer may be made under a separate announcement in the future. The FAA is not seeking or accepting unsolicited proposals. The FAA will not pay for any information received or costs incurred in preparing vendor responses to this market survey. Therefore any cost associated with a market survey submission is solely at the interested vendor’s expense.
