Place of performance is the Advanced Training Center (ATC) in Harpers Ferry, WV. Sources should have the capabilities to devise and deliver an executive level leadership development program to include the curriculum, professional reference material, staff support and instructional faculty, executive coaching services, assessments, evaluations and off-site experiential learning activities. The expectation is to hold up to three 24-day cumulative (approximately 192 total training hours) sessions (Cohorts) per calendar year, with each session being comprised of 40-50 participants (students and mentors).

Potential sources should submit the following: •· business name and address, •· point of contact (including telephone number and email address), •· DUNS Number, business size, and Socio-economic status (e.g. SDVOSB, VOSB, Woman-Owned, etc.), •· Capabilities to include at a minimum the following information: Once award of a contract is made, how much lead-time is normally required before a proposed and approved curriculum is ready for initial delivery? Depending upon a CBP approved curriculum, normally how far in advance must presenters (Subject Matter Expert (SME), author, professor, etc.) be scheduled for presentations? How long would it take to make adjustments to an already approved curriculum, session, before a newly added session or course material is ready for integration? What level of curriculum alteration is normal before additional cost(s) are incurred? How much lead-time would be required to schedule presenters and accommodate 5-8 off-site sessions each year at your cost (remote presentations)? For example, Harpers Ferry, WV is very close to many day-trip sites that can be incorporated into the expected experiential training opportunities making a trip to D.C., Gettysburg, etc. possible.
