Open Source Intelligence (OSINT) Collection Training

Background
The Defense Intelligence Agency’s Open Source Intelligence (OSINT) Integration Center (OSIC) was identified as the Defense Intelligence Enterprise (DIE) Manager for OSINT by the Undersecretary of Defense (Intelligence and Security) in order to centrally manage a currently decentralized execution of OSINT activities across the Department. Coordinating enterprise scale training is a key initiative to achieve a uniformly high quality of OSINT collection across the DIE.

Work Details
The Defense Intelligence Agency requires contractor support to establish, sustain, and enhance the OSINT tradecraft and technical training for OSINT officers across the DIE. The contractor needs to address several questions related to their experience and approach in implementing and sustaining technical training, beginner, practitioner, and advanced training specifically for Open Source Collection, delivering training in multiple forms and formats, providing a 'laboratory' or 'sandbox' environment for students, validating the knowledge, skills, and abilities of students and the content of courses to support certification, and providing security cleared personnel and facilities if the required training is at a higher than unclassified security classification level.

Period of Performance
The anticipated period of performance is one (1) 12-month base period and four (4) 12-month option periods.
