This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; offers are being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued. NASA/NSSC has a requirement for a course entitled Web-Based Electrostatic Discharge Training. The objective of the training is to train and certify MSFC employees on the proper use of Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) control techniques and methods necessary to safely protect electrical and electronic devices and assemblies from the devastating effects of static charge buildup and discharge. The course will cover how ESD is generated and controlled. The course shall be tailored to meet the needs of the NASA Marshall Space Flight Center (MSFC). The vendor will deliver two ESD course modules: Module 1: Introduction to Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Control' and Module 2: 'Certification Training for Electrostatic Discharge Control'. The courses must meet NASA requirements for web-based training, which includes Section 508 compliance and compatibility with the SCORM 1.2 format of the SATERN Learning Management System. The vendor will deliver up to 100 additional pages of course content. The content must include MSFC-specific ESD requirements. Additional content may be added from other ESD training products provided by the vendor after review and approval by the MSFC technical point of contact. Course content will be an outright purchase with unlimited access. Course is to include customization to expand information and exam material and include an interactive glossary developed cooperatively with MSFC that is Section 508 compliant and integrated into the two modules. Vendor will provide the option to combine the ESD technical content into one course with a final exam or two stand-alone courses with separate final exams. The specifics of the two options will be addressed in discussions with the MSFC technical point of contact. In the final development stages, the selected option will include book-marking and glossary links. Vendor will provide the final product(s) to a limited number of MSFC employees to approve and verify course content and customization prior to installation of the final product(s) into the SATERN Learning Management System.
