- ATTACHMENT #1 - SAMPLE PROGRAM AGENDA FOR EFW RFP OPM2613R0004 - EFFECTIVE WRITING SEMINAR DELIVERY IN FY13 This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items prepared in accordance with the format in Subpart 12.6, as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; proposals are being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued. The Solicitation number is OPM2613R0004 and is issued as a Request for Proposals (RFP). This solicitation document incorporates all mandatory commercial item provisions and clauses that are in effect through Federal Acquisition Circular (FAC) 2005-63 dated December 10, 2012. The North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS) code is 611430 and the small business size standard is $10.0 million. This procurement is set-aside exclusively for small businesses, allowing only a small business to submit proposals. The U.S. Office of Personnel Management's (OPM) Center for Leadership Development (CLD) provides high quality leadership and management development for supervisors, managers and executives across the Federal government through both multi-agency and single-agency designed courses. OPM has established two leadership institutes, the Federal Executive Institute in Charlottesville (FEI), Virginia, and the Management Development Center's (MDC's) with locations in Shepherdstown, West Virginia and Aurora, Colorado. OPM also offers courses at the OPM Headquarters in Washington, D.C. and at other locations. As a Federal business enterprise, CLD provides services that assist Federal agencies in achieving their missions by providing competency-based leadership programs to build great leaders for great government. In support of its mission, OPM needs to acquire up to (5) contractors to provide Lead Facilitation and Instructor services during the delivery of as many as (10) four-day Effective Writing in the Federal Government: Leading with the Written Word (EFW) courses. The EFW course was designed to teach participants how the Federal government announces, defends, investigates, regulates, explains issues and systems, and procures products and services that run the country and impact the American people. The course also explores how Federal employees compose, review, edit and issue critical and sensitive written materials for diverse audiences including national and international groups. For those who write for regulatory, investigative, and oversight agencies, to name a few, the need for effective writing is critical to the success of their organizations. The need to rid documents of cluttered or unclear language has been made a priority by government executives. This course supports the development of the following OPM competencies: Oral/Written Communication, Influencing/Negotiating, Political Savvy, Strategic Thinking, Continual Learning, and Improving Leadership Capabilities. These competencies are part of the OPM Executive Core Qualifications (ECQs) which are used as indicators of leadership success in the federal government. For more information on the ECQs please see http://www.leadership.opm.gov/. OPM intends to award up to (5) Firm-fixed Price Contracts to the offeror(s) that represents the best value to the government. The offerors shall provide all labor, incidental materials, and other services necessary to render services under the resulting contract, see Statement of Objectives (SOO) detailed below. The period of performance is listed in the SOO below. Offerors are invited to submit their quotations to OPM Contracting in response to this notice by 12:00 PM Eastern Standard Time (EST), December 28, 2012. Only e-mailed requests for additional information will be accepted at Shannon.Kennedy@opm.gov through 10:00 AM EST, December 18, 2012. Quotations submitted in response to this notice shall include the solicitation number in the subject line and be signed, dated and submitted via email to Shannon.Kennedy@opm.gov. Technical and Pricing proposals MUST be in two separate files. If your technical and price proposal is not submitted in two separate files, your response to this solicitation will be considered non-responsive and will not be given any further consideration. Each of the parts shall be separate and complete, so that evaluation of one may be accomplished independently of and concurrently with the evaluation of the others. PLEASE REVIEW THE ATTACHED RFP OPM2613R0004 FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION.
