The Department of the Navy, under the direction of the Commanding Officer at Naval Surface Warfare Center, Port Hueneme Division (NSWC PHD), is seeking sources for the provision of a Certified Test & Evaluation Professional Body of Knowledge Course. This procurement is classified as a Sources Sought notice, indicating the agency’s intent to identify qualified Small Business Administration (SBA) set-aside vendors capable of delivering specialized training to its Test & Evaluation workforce at Port Hueneme CBC Base, California.
The primary objective of this initiative is to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of NSWC PHD’s personnel in executing mission-critical test and evaluation tasks. The course is designed to review and reinforce the foundational principles covered in the Certified Test and Evaluation Professional (CTEP) Foundational exam. It begins with an introduction to the history of Test & Evaluation within the Federal Government, followed by an overview of the Department of War (DoW) Acquisition Process, referencing relevant agencies such as the Navy, FAA, DHS, DOT&E, and other DoW entities.
The core curriculum is structured around the Certified Test and Evaluation Professional (CTEP) Body of Knowledge (BOK), encompassing four key subject domains:
1. **Test & Evaluation Planning**: This includes requirements analysis, strategy development, evaluation approaches, test planning, cost management, contracting, organizational planning, risk identification and management, and specialized testing types.
2. **Test & Evaluation Design**: Focused on test adequacy and scientific test and analysis techniques.
3. **Test & Evaluation Execution**: Covering test control management, data management, and test safety/certification.
4. **Test Data Analysis, Evaluation, and Reporting**: Addressing data verification and validation, validation of test results, evaluation, reporting, cyber resilience/cybersecurity analysis, model validation, and data analytics.
The anticipated outcome is a workforce that is better equipped with the knowledge and skills necessary to conduct rigorous and effective test and evaluation activities, thereby supporting the Navy’s broader mission objectives.
This requirement falls under NAICS Code 611430 (Professional and Management Development Training), with Product Service Code U009. The place of performance is Port Hueneme CBC Base, California.
