Request for Information - Executive Writing Course FA701426QB008
Summary
AI-generated · Apr 01, 2026Industry input is sought to shape an acquisition strategy for an Executive Writing Course (EWC) that will supplement the Space Force Action Officer Course. The EWC aims to improve executive-level written communication by producing decision-ready products (e.g., executive summaries, memos, EXSUMs). The contractor will develop the curriculum, administer and deliver instruction, and provide performance reporting; the course must align with the mandatory AOC prerequisite and be deliverable to Space Force staff action officers, with Microsoft Teams as the delivery platform and the ability to surge as needed.
Respondents should address capability and experience, a technical approach (recommended duration and structure, teaching methods, and how student improvement will be measured), staffing qualifications, and a delivery model (class size, frequency, surge readiness). Include data rights considerations and whether proprietary materials are involved. Provide rough order-of-magnitude pricing for development, per-course delivery, and ongoing sustainment/updates, with assumptions and key cost drivers. Also cover contracting strategy (single-award BPA vs alternatives), potential contract vehicles, and small-business participation, along with risks and recommended changes. Industry engagement may include follow-on one-on-one sessions or a virtual industry day; responses are voluntary, for planning purposes, not a solicitation, and not reimbursed. Submissions should be in PDF or Word, up to 15 pages, with the email subject line "RFI Response EWC Support [Company Name]".
