How to bid on Group Aerobics Instructors BPA for DEPT of Defense

What the agency is buying

The Department of Defense is seeking instructors to provide group aerobic classes at the Patrick SFB Fitness Center in Florida. This opportunity is for a Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA), which means the government will not commit to buying a specific number of classes upfront.

The selected contractor will be responsible for supplying all necessary personnel, equipment, and supervision for up to 500 classes per contract year. This BPA offers flexibility for the government to request services as needed, using Government Purchase Cards (GPC) for individual orders.

Key dates and deadlines

This solicitation was published on August 07, 2026. The deadline for submitting your response is August 20, 2026, at 2:00 PM ET. It is important to submit your bid before this time, as late submissions are generally not accepted.

Who this opportunity suits

This opportunity is suitable for businesses that provide professional fitness instruction services, specifically group aerobics. Firms with experience in staffing fitness centers and managing class schedules would be well-suited. The nature of a BPA means it could benefit vendors looking for ongoing, as-needed work rather than a fixed-term contract with guaranteed volume.
