Sole Source Justification - Defense Tactical Technical Training

The FBI is seeking a one‑year, firm‑fixed‑price contract with the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) to deliver a specialized defense‑tactical training program for special agents. The curriculum must blend mixed‑martial‑arts (MMA) techniques with law‑enforcement‑specific defensive tactics, covering striking, grappling, weapon defense, ground control, and conditioning to enhance agents’ combat readiness, mental toughness, and tactical awareness. The contract is justified as sole‑source because UFC is deemed the only vendor with the requisite expertise and experience to meet the FBI’s unique requirements within the required timeframe. The agency intends to use this “bridge” contract to build a competitive market for future multi‑year procurements. • Training scope: MMA‑based combat skills plus specialized defense tactics for FBI special agents. • Duration: 1‑year base period (potential extensions not detailed). • Delivery: On‑site or at designated training facilities, provided by UFC certified trainers. • Funding: Firm‑fixed‑price; estimated value not disclosed. • Procurement method: Sole‑source justification under 41 U.S.C. 3304(a)(1) and FAR 6.103‑1.
