- Description
- PROPOSED PILOT ACQUISITIONS TRAINING PROGRAM - Region 6 (R6) Acquisitions Management (AQM) has conducted research through telephone contact with known sources who provide Defense Acquisition University (DAU) certified courses. Known providers were asked about interest in pursuing new business model that enables Federal Employees to teach the firms courses to Federal Employees and retain the DAU course certification. Based on the contacts made, R6 AQM found only one provider, ESI International interested in the new approach. This pilot approach is in an effort to reduce the significant costs associated with obtaining mandatory DAU certified Acquisitions Training. Further, the pilot should enable the Government to better control the increasing costs associated with students traveling to locations to attend courses. This notice is intended to provide firms that were not contacted/not otherwise known by R6 AQM an opportunity to express interest. To have any reasonable expectation of success, this pilot approach will only be undertaken between R6 AQM and firms with a successful history of providing DAU certified AQM courses in both standard classroom setting and with virtual classroom capabilities. Dependent upon responses received in regards to this notice, R6 AQM anticipates negotiating with ESI International the scope of approach and rates resulting in the award of a Blanket Purchase Agreement for the pilot training program.
