The Department of the Army, specifically the Mission and Installation Contracting Command (MICC) Fort Knox, has issued special notice PANMCC-26-P-0000043257 regarding a JROTC Cadet Leadership (JCLC) Medical STEM Experience. This requirement supports the 6th Brigade and the Muscogee County School District in Columbus, Georgia. While the government intends to award a contract to Columbus Technical College on a sole source basis under the authority of 41 U.S.C. 1901, it is currently seeking information from other vendors to determine if a competitive procurement is feasible.
The scope of work involves providing medical STEM training and educational services for JROTC cadets from June 1 through June 5, 2026. The primary place of performance is Columbus, Georgia. This acquisition is categorized under NAICS 611310, Colleges, Universities, and Professional Schools, and PSC U009, Education/Training- General. There is currently no set-aside designated for this requirement; however, the government is using this notice to assess the capabilities of small businesses, including 8(a), HUBZone, Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned, and Women-Owned Small Business concerns, to potentially support a future set-aside determination.
