- Description
- This is a notice of intent to award a sole-source contract and is not a request for competitive proposals. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Center for Surveillance, Epidemiology and Laboratory Services, hereby announces its intent to solicit and enter into a contract with Rustici Software, 3351 Aspen Grove Drive, Ste. 300, Franklin, TN 37067-2837 for the purchase of SCORMengine 1.2 LMS/TinCan xAPI Software and Custom Reporting Tool. The statutory authority permitting other than full and open competition is FAR 6.302-1 and 41 U.S.C. 253(c)(1). The NAICS code for this acquisition is 511210, Software Publishers, and the small business size standard is $25,000,000.00. Award will be made using Simplified Acquisition Procedures, per FAR Part 13.5. Rustici's SCORMengine and TinCan xAPI is the only product on the market that will allow CDC to capture all keystrokes, mouse clicks and other internal course information required to develop assessment tools for application-based learning objectives and laboratory competencies. These assessments are essential to documenting agency compliance with biosafety and biosafety training regulations and addressing some of the issues that lead to the recent biosafety incidents reported by the press. Rustici's SCORMengine and TinCan xAPI is also the only product on the market that will allow CDC to distribute SCORM-compliant eLearning materials to external Learning Management Systems (LMS) without distributing source materials, thereby allowing CDC to maintain control over training content. Rustici also is the only vendor that offers customized reporting tools for the TinCan data that CDC will receive when embedding it in the eLearning content. By receiving this enhanced eLearning reporting data, CDC will be able to more accurately evaluate eLearning effectiveness and user compliance with Lab Safety training. Interested parties who feel they possess the expertise, experience and ability should submit a capabilities statement to Tonya S. Justice, Contract Specialist, via email to TJustice@cdc.gov by 1:00 pm EST on 8/24/2015, and reference #2015-85021 in the email subject line. Vendors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) prior to an award of a federal contract. The website is: www.sam.gov. The Government will review any/all capabilities statements submitted and determine if other qualified sources do exist that could provide this requirement. Information received in response to this announcement will be used solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement for these services. The Government shall consider all responses received within fifteen (15) days of this posting, in accordance with FAR 5.203. If no affirmative responses are received within fifteen (15) days, negotiations will be conducted with Rustici Software as the only source and a contract will be issued without any additional notices being posted. A determination by the CDC not to compete this proposed contract, based upon responses to this notification, is solely within the discretion of the Contracting Officer.
