We are grateful to our industry partners for their response, and are requesting additional information as we further define our requirement for 2018. NWP seeks the professional services of an accredited academic institution, or an entity that has access to an accredited academic institution (hereinafter referred to as "Contractor"), to work collaboratively with district facilitators to administer a graduate-level Leadership Development Program (LDP) for a maximum of 16 Corps employees annually. This proposed firm fixed price contract will have a period of performance from June 01, 2018 through May 31, 2021 and consists of one 12-month base period and two 12-month option years, if exercised.
