- Description
- SOURCES SOUGHT SYNOPSIS FOR AFSO 21 COURSEWARE CONVERSION 1. The Air Education and Training Command (AETC), Randolph Air Force Base (AFB), Texas, is soliciting interest and capability statements for a competitive acquisition for converting approximately 3300 hours of classroom instruction into computer based training (CBT). This will impact 100 – 150 courses to distance learning. The Government will provide a list of candidate courses to the provider. The list is currently being refined and will be finalized at time of solicitation. Some courses will be identified for immediate conversion. Other courses will require feasibility studies to be performed. Courses will consist primarily of knowledge based refresher or supplemental training. Interactivity levels will range from level 1 thru 3. It is expected that 25-30% will be level 1 with 60% at level 2 and 10-15% at level 3. 2. Courseware will be SCORM conformant in accordance with DODI 1322.26. Results of SCORM self test will be required. Self test software is available at http://www.adlnet.gov/downloads/index.aspx 3. Courseware will be Section 508 conformant. Completed checklist available at https://adlhub.golearn.csd.disa.mil/hub/tools_resources/tr_checklist.asp will be required to ensure conformance. 4. Provider will provide all documentation required by Air Force policy (AFI 36-2201, AETCI 36-2203, AETCI 36-2209). These policies and publications can be found at http://www.e-publishing.af.mil/ 5. The contractor shall provide sufficient, qualified personnel to perform the required services. 6. The purpose of publicizing notices for potential actions is to increase competition, to broaden industry participation in meeting Government requirements, and to assist small businesses in general in obtaining contracts and subcontracts. This is not a Request for Proposal (RFP), but instead is a market research tool to determine the availability and adequacy of potential sources prior to issuing the RFP. This is a SOURCES SOUGHT SYNOPSIS. THERE IS NO SOLICITATION AVAILABLE AT THIS TIME. REQUESTS FOR A SOLICITATION WILL NOT RECEIVE A RESPONSE. The North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS) code 611710 applies. Firms responding to this announcement should indicate their business size for code 611710, particularly if they are a small business (the small business size standard is $6.5 million). “Small business” means small business, veteran-owned small business, service-disabled veteran-owned small business, HUBZone small business, small disadvantaged business, and women-owned small business. If business size is transitioning to other than “small business” in the next 90 days, please indicate as such. 7. This sources sought notice is for planning purposes only and is not to be construed as a commitment by the Government. It is not the intention of the Government to enter into a contract based on this notice or to otherwise pay for information solicited. If the Government decides to contract for this effort at a later date, we will issue an RFP to industry for a period of 2 years. The anticipated award date is September 2008. 8. It is the Government’s intent to award one contract. The Government currently plans to issue an unrestricted solicitation; however, it reserves the right to make this a small business (SB) set-aside based on the interest and technical capabilities received from SB concerns. (Under an unrestricted solicitation, large businesses will be required to submit a subcontracting plan.) Therefore, it is requested that SB concerns provide sufficient written information supporting their capability to perform (items H, I and J below). 9. All interested parties are invited to provide the following information for your company/institution and for any teaming or joint venture partners: A. Company/Institute Name and CAGE code. B. Mailing Address. C. Point of Contact (to include phone/fax and e-mail). D. Web site, if applicable. E. State if your company is registered under NAICS code 611710 or not. F. State whether your company is small, small disadvantaged, woman-owned small, HUB-Zone, or 8(a) certified business concern. G. State the size of your company in terms of personnel. H. Degree of experience converting classroom instruction into computer based training (CBT). I. Identify any past or current Government contracts for converting courseware within the last three years. J. Briefly describe how your company can satisfy the requirements described above, and your associated technical capabilities. 10. Responses are due no later than 1600 CST, THURSDAY, 29 May 2008, and shall be electronically submitted to both the Contract Specialist, 2Lt Bryce Fiacco, at bryce.fiacco@randolph.af.mil and the Contracting Officer, Mr. Kevin Shackleford, at kevin.shackleford@randolph.af.mil in a Word 97 (or above) or Adobe PDF file format. 11.
