 Hey GovCon Giants family, Eric Coffey here, and today we are going to discuss the sources sought RFI notices that came out for the week. So I've already pulled up the screen here. I pulled up and there's currently as of the recording, there's 554 results again for those who are new to my channel who've never seen us do this before. We are in beta.sam. Let me just pull this down so you guys can see it. My picture is covering it. There it is, beta.sam. All right, we're in beta.sam.gov, here in beta.sam.gov. We just go to publish week, past week click filter, and then under the types of notices we're looking at sources sought notices. Mind you, if you don't know the importance of a source of sought notice or why we're even doing this, go back and watch my video on sources sought notices and the importance of them. So today we're going to take a look at this week's sources sought notices because why? We want to get ahead of contract opportunities that are coming down the pipeline because beta.sam is still not quite ready to go. It's really difficult to navigate and scroll through 554 results. Officially, I think they published 20 or so on the screen. So as you can see down here, I would have to go through 56 pages to do that. That is nearly impossible. So good thing for everyone. I've already pulled it up here on the spreadsheet so we can take a look. So here on my spreadsheet, we've downloaded the 554 results and we're going to go through them. I always find interesting things that people watching actually can benefit from. So I like to go through them each and every week. That way we can talk about it. Let's just look and see if we find anything interesting here. Land road trailer, plank restoration. Let's see. Forehood environmental lab, analytical services, heat furnace. Rigid connecting link. Let's see. Sources Japan. Virtual patient immersive training. That looks interesting, right? Maybe we'll take a look at this one. Virtual patient immersive training. Tactical combat, casualty care, virtual patient immersive training. Okay, I'll take a look at that one. So what we do is we actually go here and I copy this particular number. We come back on the other screen on our browser, right? Under keywords, we put paste the number and hit enter and it pulls up our results. And then we can take a look at this and see if it's something that we're eligible for or something that we even qualify. This happens to be in Japan. However, since it's virtual immersive training, we can probably do it online, right? Virtual training. Let's see. Virtual patient designed to match current mannequins, simulators, student gaze tracking when instructive verification, virtual medical interventions, multi-stage conditions, psychological progression, integration between virtual patients, and physical mannequins, remote control tablet built in DOD mandate TCC training algorithms. Not something that I'm familiar with. So we're going to keep on trucking. All right. Let's keep going. Shores protection project, Broward County. That's my backyard. That should be cool. Sources of testing and evaluation, training, threat, target systems, tape collection, ultra microphone for array of tomography, identity storage racks. I know some people in IT can do that. ISU Cuba rack. I don't know what that is. Let's see. 100 gig ethernet encryptor. My IT folks out there. You should be able to do something like that. Oh, bell helicopter spare parts. I do have folks out here who are aviation folks in the group. So this is something that I think would be of interest to them. In fact, I'm going to save this one. I'm going to just highlight it and then I will add it back in the show notes for people to look at. Air Force Enterprise based operating support. Fistage imaging support services, veterans and services services, but veteran on business. Pillow speaker with Jack. Let's see. And again, this is the is to give folks an idea of what's coming up. This is okay. This is good. May talk to acquire real property maintenance. This was good for army installation. I'm going to save this one. I like that because it says to actually acquire property. So that should be pretty interesting. That would call for my real estate folks out there to let telemetry systems. Man, you know, it's funny that this test your use of the English language. These are words that I don't use all the time, right? Satcom and Tana's regulatory management centers, cubicle and modular office furniture. Let's see. We have spinal cord stimulators, vehicle transportation equipment, elevators and lifts. Relay boxes. Oh, oh, I knew I would find something worthwhile. Roofing IDIQ. Okay, I better, I better have someone out there in the gubcon giant's world that knows roofers and that goes after this roofing IDIQ. They have it for the south and the north. I'm going to make sure I'm going to. This is going to be the highlight. This is going to be the title of this video. It's roofing IDIQ. All of my contractors and construction people are pleased. This thing is probably huge and I haven't seen it. Let's go back and take a look. Go back over here to the browser. And let's take a look at this thing. Roofing IDIQ, sources of roofing IDIQs. Make sure you respond. United States Department of Agriculture. Okay, they're looking for small businesses and this area covers. So it's a construction, renovation, repair products, aeros, planes, south locations which include Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas and New Mexico. The task order rangers are going to be $2,000 to $2.5 million. You're going to have to show bonding capacity with the name. And again, you have to get it to five. Look, look, let's take a look at the requirements here. All right, bonding capacity per project. But then your experience is show five government or commercial projects that your firm has completed in the last five years. So five projects in five years, that's one a year. Pretty simple. With cost ranges between $2,000 to $2.5 million in roofing. Pretty easy. We've got till September 14th to submit this. Pretty standard stuff. Doesn't tell you the amount but it's going to be significant because if their contract's awarded from $2 to $2.5 million it's going to probably be somewhere in the neighborhood of $25 to $50 million or $50 to $100 million IDIQ respectively. So definitely someone should be looking at that. I'm going to make sure we put that in here. And if you need help, let us know. Protection advocacy training and technical assistance projects, fire engine truck repairs, technical support systems, virtuality threat trainer, something in Sweden. Oh, sorry, sorry, sorry. Testing block weights for crane. I know we've got crane operators. Let's see remote switching gear assembly. Custom built paint booth maintenance. Suicide prevention doors. I have no idea what a suicide prevention door is. Long range air delivery of maritime mines. Oh, let's go. I'm reading it. I'm reading it. I guess I read it out loud in case someone's driving and listening to me. Installation of lift gates. I just talked to someone who does lift gates. Installation fencing, parking lot improvements. That's a good one for a local company. Diesel tank cleaning. I know my buddy does that up in Massachusetts. Still algae bioreactors. Combination, tender boat, suspended platform. You know what? This is good. I have my guy who's into tugboats. Let me see if this might make sense. I know he does tugboats. Maybe he does tender boats. We'll save that one for some people out here. Digital periodicals from Cengage Learning Center. I don't know what that is, but I'm sure that there are people out here who do. Let's take a look and kind of see what that is. Just being nosy now. By the way, the reason why you want to do sources notices is because by the time this stuff comes out, it may be too late. Look at that. So what they're looking for is the planning purposes. And again, don't be discouraged because it says this is for planning purposes only. This is how people like myself get sole source opportunities because we respond. Everyone else says, oh, then it says this is not a bid. This is for planning purposes. They're not going to issue a contract. I get it. Consider it as marketing your business to this agency. Provide access to the following digital archives of these periodicals. Middle East series, Middle East, 18th century collection. I don't even know who has this kind of stuff. But if you have this stuff, you probably, it's probably worth some gold right now because the government's looking for it. So if you've got it, it seems like it's worth gold. All right, let's keep pushing. Workative services, program contract support services. Sounds like staffing to me. Mental health program for New Jersey Army National Guard. I'm highlighting that because I know some people that are in that space. In fact, oh my man, I spoke to him the other day. I just spoke to someone recently who's in that space for mental health program. National Guard, I'm definitely saving that one for him. Market research project. Who can't do a market research project? Come on. I know we've got people out here that have the ability to do market research projects for the government. Musician, look at that. Chapel Musician. Highlighting that one for folks. Navy Forces online support contracts. Blood and blood transfusion services. Detentions, detention services. I don't even know what that is. Lease of office space, realtors, carpet tiles. Oh yeah, we do carpet tiles. Boiler controls. Water jetting and abrasive blasting services. I know painters out here, Teddy. My painters do most of the time. They know people who do abrasive blasting services. Also, I had someone that actually emailed me a long time ago that does, he's got a special way of treating the ships that are rusted out. This would be a great opportunity for him. I know folks, again, lease in real estate space. Lease real estate space. Lease real estate space. Mobile gym and a box. Come on. Norfolk Naval Shipyard preservation, IDIQ sources sought. I'm curious, I'm just curious where they're looking to preserve. Let's go back over to our window and see what are they looking to preserve here. It's so often that I always look at these things and by the time they're awarded, it's one or two people that bid because everyone else just failed to show up. Hold on. Let me make sure. Okay, good. Just want to check if my mic was working. We're already, you know, 12 minutes in this video. I just want to make sure my mic was working. All right. Management, material support, labor, supplies, equipment necessary to perform, depot, intermediate level, preservation of this USS Toledo submarine. Okay. Yeah. No. That's above my pay grade. Close the door. Children prevent maintenance units, duck assemblies, retinal cameras, cost-estimating services. I know we have folks that can do cost-estimating services. It reminds me of some of my people who do engineering. Shelter tents for COVID-19 testing. They're still looking for shelter tents for COVID-19 testing. Actuators, treadmills. Come on, stress treadmills, laundry carts. I've got to speed up. Landing gear will design services and post-construction support services. Where are my engineers? I had two people on IG. In fact, I have someone that watched my... I'm going to save this one for her because I had someone who says, we can't find stuff for engineering services. Boom. You're not looking in the right places. Again, by the time you're looking, you're looking at beta SAM for actual bid issuance. By the time you do that, this is already gone. Camera mobile surveillance unit, air purification parts, USAFA band cloud, fuel aircraft fuel, cell fuel aircraft, excuse me. Comprehensive review and integration of assessment security systems. I've got to move on. We're at 200. There's 500 plus opportunities. Don't go just yet. If you're watching this, something really, really good is coming out and it's probably going to be in your space and you're going to go on to the next TikTok video. Consulting services. Sweet. Shoe covers. Nice. I sold some of those. Job Corps, health support services. Access health support sources, but train AC units, polysomnography, sleep disorder technician services. Alexa is in my background talking. Consulting and engineering R&D services for spectral measurements. Demilitarization, research and development. I'm saving that. I know there's people in here who can take a look at this type of information. They can write their reports. There's probably people who've already done these studies already. It's just a matter of finding them. Portable toilet trailer, portable toilet trailers. San Diego. Oh, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. ISO certification services. Oh, yeah. We have someone in our GovCon Giants group that can do that. I am sending it to her. She's going to be so happy. I'm sending it to her today. Space in Durango, Colorado. I know it's a pain in the butt, right? Look at all this stuff. But you have to go through it. You have to go through it. You got to do it. That's why I do it once a month. I mean, once a week. Shredding services. I interviewed one of my podcast guests who has a copy. They want her family-owned businesses to do copy and printing. I know they can do shredding. I don't know where it's at, okay? We're almost there. We're in the 300s. Financial data management software. I know people who do that. Stratus. Stratus mobile software application subscription programs. Sounds pretty basic. A&E services for environmental investigations. Again, people say we don't. There's no A&E services. I've seen three of them right here. You're looking in the wrong place. A lot of times people are saying, I look at beta salmon. I don't see my stuff because you're looking for contracts. You're not looking for social sub because people don't believe their contracts. In fact, I taught the SBA Success Week last week. I taught the untraditional approach to proposal writing. And it's funny because Marina set back and said, for me, that is the traditional approach. But for people, that is considered the untraditional approach. So for me, this is actually the traditional approach to looking at contracts. And what folks do by bidding, bidding, bidding is actually untraditional for me. If you're going to bid anything, if you're going to respond, make sure it's, I would make sure it's a multi-year contract and IDV, IDIQ, MATOC, SATOC, BPA, things like that. Survey mapping, geospatial, A&E, IDIQ. Centers for Instructional Leadership, Advanced Coaching, Professional Learning. I know we've got coaches and trainers out there. Young Adult Outreach Education Initiative. Sounds like something for a non-profit. Office Base, Geotechnical Services, AE, IDC contract. Body cameras. We're almost done. Stay with me. I'm telling you something big is coming up. Stay with me. Asbestos Abatement and Puerto Rico. Purchase of USB headset and microphone. Come on, come on. I want to see one of my, you know, under 25 year olds get that one. Great place to start. If you're under 25, I'm almost there. We're at 500s. We're at 19 minutes. Wow. All right, I know. Get to the point, Eric. Get to the point. Storage Tank Cleaning, Braco Oil. Sources of Strategy and Business Solution Support. Scrub X Dispensers. Lease Retail and Related Space. Environment Modeling Simulation. Parallel Bars. Sticker that Parallel Bars is out. Office Space in Gainesville, Florida. Dynantouch Kiosk Sources Sots. Boot Dust and Moisture. National Recruitment Services. Applicant Tracking System. That's for my IT people. Applicant Tracking System. Sounds like something for IT folks. Apple Mac Pros. CDC is looking for contracts who can provide an Apple Mac Pro Tower. Immentorized Flight Termination System Sources Up Vendicator Badging System. All right. Look, unless you're interested in this National Recruitment Services, that's fine. I'm going to go ahead and pull this up just because I do have. I want to help some IT people look at opportunities. So we're going to pull this up and then we're going to close up with this one here. So unless you're interested, it was nice talking to you today. Thanks for watching this video. Continue watching, learning, growing your businesses, growing in the space. Happy to be here to be able to support you in any manner. By the way, if you are doing or have won your first contract, where Maria is actually interviewing students, subscribers, people who've been following me for a while who actually won their first contract, she is going to be hosting that podcast. So it should be exciting, interesting. We've got some really good people lined up already. National Recruitment Services Application Tracking System. So if you are one of those folks, send us an email, send us a message if you'd like to be interviewed talking about your first contract win. National Recruitment Service Application Tracking. Okay, I'm going to pull this down and read it real quick. Hopefully it pulls up on the screen so we can see it together. That'd be great. Just download the doc file. It's coming up. Okay, it's not on the screen. Here, let me change real quick. I'm going to change this one in a second. Come on. All right, here we go. All right, PWS, Veteran Self-Administration National Recruitment Service has been tasked with vital mission to use best practices to recruit critical healthcare needs in addition to fine consulting services. Scope of work. Here we go. Track statute relationship between clients. There's a job opportunity for potential candidates. It's going to be a one-year base for your options. Okay, location Oklahoma City. This is what you have to do. Initial import of data from existing APS. 40,000 plus candidate records. So yeah, this looks, this is good. I like it. I like it. I think we, I know we have some people in the group that can do this. So I'd be very curious to see how many of those people actually, you know, would take it a son. Hey, listen, thank you so much for watching as always. If you have any questions about anything that we talked about, make sure to drop a comment below. The, as of August the 28th, which is in one week from now, the price of the Gupkin Giants course will be going up.

So looking forward to doing all that great stuff. This is the last few weeks to get in for a lifetime membership before we go to a subscription based model.
