- Description
- The IRS intends to acquire for the Treasury Dept., on a sole source basis from ESI International, a complete and comprehensive Project Management Training Program. The CO intends to issue an RFP for an indefinite quantity indefinite delivery type contract for a base year and four option years, for a maximum of 500 course slots and 250 assessment instruments per year. All responsible sources may submit a proposal which shall be considered by the agency. Requests for a copy of the RFP should be mailed to the address above or faxed to 202/283-1514. This procurement will be accomplished using FAR Subpart 13.5 procedures. ESI is considered uniquely qualified to supply this requirement to the Treasury Dept. because it offers a comprehensive product spread that addresses the variety of specific Project Management Training Program requirements which Treasury has. Furthermore, ESI International's product offerings are the most robust in the subject matter area known to the IRS and Treasury. Treasury requires: (1) Public offerings, in the Washington, DC metro area, and preferably nationally, of the largest variety of Project Management and Contracting Management courses which teach the principles of the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBoK) based on those concepts and principles as propounded by the Project Management Institute (PMI). Public offerings of all courses at the contractor?s location in the Washington, DC metro areas are necessary for two reasons: At any given time there would not be enough Treasury participants to fill many of the specialized classes. Without the contractor offering courses on a regular basis, most of the needs beyond the core courses would not be met in a timely manner. Also, most of the prospective participants are in the Washington, D.C. area where no-cost classroom space is at a premium. Given the life of the contract, the larger participants, such as IRS, would be unable to provide enough classrooms to meet the demand. Renting classroom space would have considerable impact on the cost of the contract and would be inefficient. (2) A Knowledge and Skills Assessment Instrument which has been validated for use as a tool to help in determining the skill level and training needs of those assessed. (3) College level credit for the core curriculum. (4) A program that offers Project Management Professional Certification (PMP). The intent is to make this award by Sept. 15, 2003.
