Virginia Beach, VA, April 25, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The U.S. Special Operations Command (SOCOM) issued a solicitation for combat rubber raiding craft platforms. These platforms will be used for the execution of training operations at the Joint Expeditionary Base Little Creek-Fort Story in Virginia Beach, Virginia. The last day a business can submit a quote is May 1, 2018, at 12:00 p.m. EST. This opportunity is a total small business set aside. For assistance meeting this deadline with proper registrations and a strong offer, businesses may use third-party government registration firm, US Federal Contractor Registration (USFCR).
During the training exercises, the boats will be deployed from C-130 Hercules aircraft. Specifications to fulfill SOCOM's needs are found on the federal business opportunity solicitation which can be located on the Advanced Procurement Portal from USFCR. Contractors are to provide the personnel, management, materials, and equipment necessary to provide platforms for combat rubber raiding crafts.
Further questions should be directed toward Cindy Baker (cindy.baker@socom.mil). All quotes must be clearly marked with the RFQ Number H92240-18-Q-2031. Email (NSWK2@socom.mil) is the only method of submitting quotes. Businesses should immediately get started making sure they are registered properly to submit offers to the government. Contracting officers will be unable to assist with specific contractor requirements such as registration in the System for Award Management (SAM).
SAM is the mandatory registration that all federal contractors must complete before making offers to perform any work for the government. This system can be tricky to handle, especially when trying to meet a deadline and put a quote together. For assistance with all of these matters, US Federal Contractor Registration is standing by to provide.
US Federal Contractor Registration (USFCR) is the world's largest third-party government registration firm. They have helped thousands of entities translate their capabilities into the U.S. Government's language and systems with the Simplified Acquisition Program, bid training and proposal writing services. They not only register companies on their behalf in SAM, but also have pioneered the Advanced Procurement Portal (APP). APP shows active and historical federal business opportunity information in the same place, simplifying market research. Active federal buyers and vendors are not only cataloged in APP, but also are also using the system, creating a powerful network. Businesses who partner with USFCR will be able to dedicate their complete effort toward their performance on a contract, rather than the acquisition of it.
