Description

Revised 5-23-24 The Department received the following question regarding the RFI sent and has provided the following response: Question: The RFI notes that the WWC-SAGE contract will have a period of performance of 60 months and include option periods to support additional cohorts of grantees from the EIR, PSSG, or similar programs. Can IES confirm that WWC-SAGE will be released as a single, stand-alone contract with option periods rather than a BPA or IDIQ with multiple BPA/IDIQ holders and task orders? The response to this question is important because it affects how bidders will partner on the opportunity. Response: The Department intends on awarding WWC-SAGE as a single, stand-alone contract with option periods extending to 60 months, rather than as a multiple-award BPA. No other changes made. Please see attachment for full details. The What Works ClearinghouseTM (WWC) is an initiative of the United States Department of Education (the Department), Institute of Education Sciences (IES), National Center for Education Evaluation and Regional Assistance (NCEE).� The WWC reviews, reports, and synthesizes findings from publicly available research to inform assessments of �what works� to improve student outcomes or other outcomes relevant to preschool, elementary, secondary, postsecondary, or adult education. The Department intends to award three new WWC contracts in FY 2025.� This notice is a request for information only.��All information contained in this notice is preliminary in nature and subject to change.
