- Description
- The proposed release date for this RFQ is hereby revised to 'on or about THURSDAY, JULY 15, 2004. Under Request for Quotation, TIRNO-04-Q-00096, the IRS has a requirement to provide CULTURAL AWARENESS and SENSITIVITY TRAINING to its employees. To accomplish this goal, the IRS seeks to make a 1-time purchase of an existing, commercially-available ?off-the-shelf? training package on how to recognize, appreciate, be aware and sensitive to the cultural differences of the taxpayer community. The ultimate goal is for the IRS to be able to train approximately 90,000 IRS employees nation-wide, who have varying levels of interface with taxpayers. The IRS wants the rights to the training materials in order to be able to modify the training materials to suit the needs of its employees on a geographical and/or cultural basis. The existing training should be designed for traditional classroom delivery (paper-based) as well as e-learning/on-line delivery. The training materials should also have an instructor?s manual. This commercial training package should also provide a ?train-the-trainer? component. It is anticipated that there will be a ?pilot? period where the IRS will modify the training materials to meet its specific needs; the Contractor will provide assistance to the IRS during the ?pilot? phase. At the conclusion of the ?pilot? phase, the final version will accepted and the ?train-the-trainer? classes will be completed. It is anticipated that the ?pilot? phase will not exceed 6 months. The entire proposed period of performance will not exceed 12 months. Vendors will be evaluated on past performance/experience; key personnel; compliance with 508 requirements and price. This will be a 100% small business set-aside requirement (Numbered Note 1 applicable). Interested parties will be able to access the RFQ from the IRS Procurement website at http://www.procurement.irs.treas.gov/ ON OR ABOUT THURSDAY, JULY 15, 2004. Questions concerning this requirement shall be sent via e-mail to the contracting officer @ Helen.D.Carmona@irs.gov
