- Description
- The United States Department of Commerce, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, (NOAA) National Weather Service (NWS), Training Division intends to negotiate on a sole source basis with the University of Maryland University College National Leadership Institute to provide labor, equipment, and materials to conduct a class ?The Power of Collaboration withy Simulation?. This course contains simulations developed exclusively for the NOAA oriented course by the National Leadership Institute at the University of Maryland. The University will use a 360-assessment ?Conflict Dynamics Profile? (CDP) to provide participants the data on their strengths and weaknesses or their conflict behavior, a combination of classroom instruction, assessment and a unique online simulation will be utilized. Key concepts and techniques of negotiation and how to use them to refine conflict dealing with organizations will be discussed. This course is aimed at potential conflict between agencies, companies and groups not between individuals. Vendors who believe that can satisfy the Government=s requirement are invited to submit an affirmative response. To be considered an affirmative response, vendors must submit written data and documentation which demonstrates an ability to meet the aforementioned requirements. All responsible sources must submit a written narrative statement of capability including detailed technical information and other technical literature sufficient to permit agency analysis. This is in order to determine a bona fide capability to meet the requirement. A determination by the Government not to open the requirement to competition based upon the responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. A firm fixed-price delivery order is contemplated for this effort. Affirmative written responses must be received no later than 15 August 2006.
