This RFI is issued solely for information and planning purposes - it does not constitute a Request for Proposal (RFP) or a promise to issue an RFP in the future. This request for information does not commit the Government to contract for any supply or service whatsoever. Further, DDESS is not at this time seeking proposals and will not accept unsolicited proposals. Respondees are advised that the U.S. Government will not pay for any information or administrative costs incurred in response to this RFI; all costs associated with responding to this RFI will be solely at the interested party's expense.

If a solicitation is released, it will be synopsized on the Federal Business Opportunities (FedBizOpps) website. It is the responsibility of the potential offerors to monitor these sites for additional information pertaining to this requirement. 2.0 Background Special education is governed by a federal law that requires students with significant disabilities to develop functional academic, motor, daily living, communication, and social skills while accessing the general education standards that are established for the school system. Our requirement is for an online, dynamic, standards-based curriculum specifically designed for special learners with significant disabilities. The curriculum should be developmentally and age appropriate providing a continuous scope and sequence from Preschool or Kindergarten to High School. 3.0 Requested Information DDESS requests vendors registered themselves as "interested vendors" if they are able to supply both categories of musical instruments. 4.0 Responses 4.1 Interested parties are requested to respond to this RFI. 5.0 Industry Discussions DDESS representatives may or may not choose to meet with potential offerors. Such discussions would only be intended to get further clarification of potential capability to meet the requirements, especially any development and certification risks. 6.0 Questions Questions regarding this announcement shall be submitted in writing by e-mail to the Contracting Officer's email address. Verbal questions will NOT be accepted. Questions will be answered by posting answers to the Federal Business Opportunities (FedBizOpps) website; accordingly, questions shall NOT contain proprietary or classified information. The Government does not guarantee that questions received after July 6th, 2012 at 1:00 PM EST will be answered. 7.0 Summary THIS IS a REQUEST FOR INFORMATION (RFI) ONLY to identify sources that can provide Special Education online curriculum resources for special learners with significant disabilities. The information provided in the RFI is subject to change and is not binding on the Government. DDESS has not made a commitment to procure any of the items discussed, and release of this RFI should not be construed as such a commitment or as authorization to incur cost for which reimbursement would be required or sought. All submissions become Government property and will not be returned.
