Request for Information: Enterprise Training Infrastructure Project Scope Study and Feasibility Analysis

REQUEST FOR INFORMATION (RFI)

The Office of Acquisition Management (OAM), on behalf of the Office of the Chief Administrative Officer (OCAO), is requesting information from qualified Architectural & Engineering (A/E) firms regarding a potential business opportunity supporting future United States Capitol Police (USCP) enterprise training infrastructure planning.

The United States Capitol Police recently completed a Training Facilities Requirements Assessment (TFRA) which evaluated the Department's current enterprise training infrastructure and identified operational capacity, throughput, concurrency, facility condition, and infrastructure limitations affecting the Department's ability to sustain current and future training requirements.

Building upon the findings of the TFRA, USCP is seeking a qualified Architectural & Engineering (A/E) firm to conduct an Enterprise Training Infrastructure Project Scope Study and Feasibility Analysis.

The purpose of the study is to further evaluate the validated operational requirements identified within the TFRA and develop feasible infrastructure alternatives capable of supporting the Department's current and future enterprise training mission. The study is expected to evaluate multiple infrastructure strategies that may include modernization or expansion of existing facilities, construction of new facilities, acquisition or leasing of facilities, utilization of partner agency resources, relocation of selected training functions, and hybrid approaches incorporating multiple infrastructure solutions.

The resulting study will provide executive leadership with engineering, planning, operational, and financial information necessary to objectively evaluate infrastructure alternatives and formulate a preferred path forward balancing operational requirements, implementation realities, fiscal considerations, and future enterprise training demand.

Please see the attached Statement of Objectives (SOO) for additional information regarding the proposed requirement.
