BACKGROUND The United States Coast Guard (USCG), in coordination with the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), is conducting market research to identify potential locations for an additional training center. This initiative addresses the Coast Guard�s existing training space deficit of approximately 280,000 square feet, which is expected to increase to 1.3 million square feet needed to meet the Coast Guard�s projected workforce growth of up to 15,000 additional personnel. The Coast Guard seeks to evaluate existing facilities or properties that can be adapted to meet the infrastructure requirements for recruit training and can be operational within 12 months of acquisition or lease. Properties must be located within the 150 largest metropolitan areas in the United States and have a livability index of at least 50/100. PROJECT SCOPE/DELIVERABLES The Coast Guard is seeking a training facility that can support the operational and training needs of its personnel. The facility should meet most of the following requirements, proposals that meet at least six will be strongly considered: Lodging for 1,200 recruits. A dining facility capable of seating 400 personnel. A medical facility to support 1,000 personnel (minimum 200 medical encounters and 200 dental encounters per day) 14 classrooms sized to accommodate 30-60 students. An auditorium with a capacity of 500+ students. A pool with 6 lanes, 25 yards in length, and a minimum depth of 4 feet. A multipurpose gymnasium/athletic/sports facility suitable for sitting 1,200 personnel Office space for 400 staff members. A land area of 150-250 acres. Proximity to a Small Commercial Service or larger airport within 30 miles. The Coast Guard is interested in properties that include additional features, such as housing units, grocery stores, schools, fitness centers, spousal employment opportunities, and child development center space for staff and their families, or facilities that can be adapted for other Coast Guard missions. PROPERTY IDENTIFICATION CRITERIA Eligible properties must have the following criteria: Properties must be fully enclosed with controlled access points to meet security requirements, or be able to be enclosed into a contiguous, secure parcel. Properties must be located within the continental United States and be within 50 miles of an airport and support services. Properties must comply with all local, state, and federal codes/standards. All utilities, appliances, and other furnishings must be functional. Properties must be located within the 150 largest metropolitan areas in the United States and have a livability index of at least 50/100. Properties must be in areas that can support 600 families, with access to public transportation, schools, fire and emergency services, grocery stores, and other essential services. All housing units, training facilities, and support infrastructure should be contiguous within the property. Properties must have low environmental risks, with no significant concerns related to lead-based paint, asbestos, or other hazards. OBJECTIVES The Coast Guard�s objectives for this project include addressing the current and future training needs of Coast Guard personnel, ensuring the property can support up to 1,200 recruits and 400 staff members, and identifying properties that can be operational within 12 months of acquisition or lease. The Coast Guard also aims to minimize costs associated with acquisition, renovation, and ongoing operations while ensuring compliance with all applicable environmental and safety standards.
