Notice of Intent to Contract with a Single Source – HVAC Maintenance Training

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) intends to award a single-source contract to Telemedia, Inc., doing business as TPC Training Systems, for accredited HVAC maintenance training and certification. This acquisition aims to align the FAA workforce with nationally recognized standards through commercially developed and maintained training programs. The FAA determined that TPC Training Systems is the only source capable of delivering the full scope of required courses while meeting a critical need for high-volume training within a condensed timeline. This requirement falls under NAICS code 611513 for Apprenticeship Training and PSC U006 for Vocational/Technical Education/Training.

As a Special Notice issued under solicitation number 693KA8-21-R-00019, this announcement serves to inform industry of the agency’s decision to bypass full and open competition in accordance with FAA Acquisition Management System (AMS) 3.2.2.4. The FAA’s System Operations Contracts office in Washington, D.C., manages this procurement, which is not subject to Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) references.

The performance of these services will take place within the United States. Although the response deadline was set for November 15, 2021, the notice was formally updated on November 16, 2021. Erica Conley serves as the primary point of contact for this action, and the notice includes no associated attachments.
