Project Title Professional Development Services for BIE Navajo District Page 2 of 2

Q1. Is the deadline going to be extended?

A1. The Government does not anticipate extending the due date for quotes at this time, although the Government reserves the right to do so, if it were found to be in the best interest of the Government.

Q2. Would you make allowances for virtual trainers, or it must be in person?

A2. Yes, we will make allowance for virtual trainers, however there are some trainings that would be best provided in person. If it would materially affect the price of the offer, then the Offeror shall make clear with their offer the details and/or plan for virtual training to meet the Government’s requirements, for pre-award review and consideration by the Government.

Q3. Is this opportunity set aside for ISBEE and/or IEE?

A3. No, this opportunity was advertised unrestricted, following an analysis of historical procurement data and approved in accordance with Agency procedures. However, both ISBEE and IEE are encouraged to participate in competition for the Contract Opportunity.

Q4. If we submit electronically, does the government require the quote submission one day early?

A4. No, the due date for Quotes and Supporting Documentation is August 08, 2022, at 2:30 PM MDT, and the Government has requested electronic deliveries only, by email to ryan.kenniff@bie.edu.

Q5. Page 32 #4 Scope: The schedule says "October - 3 days" Is these three days of professional development at the same location in October?

A5. Yes, training would happen at the same location.

Q6. Will the contractor provide sessions at different locations within each month?

A6. In Person training is held at one site; our June Summer training may require multiple trainers at a different site due to the large number of staff attending.

Q7. If BIE has the 2022-2023 schedule with locations selected for each month, could that be shared? This will help us better estimate travel expenses.

A7. Locations were listed and presented; however, the exact locations of each training have not been identified at this time. We do conduct planning meetings well in advance of each training with the contractor and a location is identified at that time. Due to COVID restrictions Navajo Nation has in place, we have to strategically plan each session to ensure the safety of all who attend, and some locations may not be available to host our trainings as scheduled. We have had to move from in-person to virtual because of the safety and well-being of everyone due to Covid exposure or the building is closed.

Q8. Can the sessions be delivered on consecutive days or at least within the same week?

A8. Not all sessions are provided by the same trainer, this depends on the goal objective and who the experts are that would provide the training, there are many trainers that we work with that specialize in different areas of the educational filed (e.g., Special Education, Leadership, Professional Learning Communities, Response to Intervention, etc.)
