The United States Coast Guard (USCG) has issued a Request for Information (RFI) to procure advanced combat marksmanship and close quarters combat (CQC) training for its Deployable Specialized Forces (DSF). This training aims to enhance the tactical capabilities of Maritime Security Response Teams (MSRT) and Tactical Law Enforcement Teams (TACLET) to effectively respond to maritime threats. The selected contractor is expected to provide eight training events annually, each comprising a minimum of 40 instruction hours addressing critical skills such as marksmanship safety, weapon manipulation, tactical positions, and long-range marksmanship. Instructors must have substantial experience and maintain a maximum instructor-to-student ratio of 1:8. Training facilities should be within 1100 miles of specified USCG units and possess the necessary infrastructure to support dynamic firearms training. The training is to focus on real-world engagement scenarios under stress, preparing operators for high-threat environments while adhering to USCG standards. Quality control, safety, and security will be key components throughout the training collaborations. The contract has a one-year base period with four potential renewal years, reinforcing USCG’s commitment to maintaining high proficiency levels among its tactical operators.
