DSHS requires a Contractor to obtain course files featuring instructional videos produced by the Contractor and to make them available to CareLearn LMS users.

The cost of the initial two-year contract is $593,280. Should DSHS determine to extend the contract, each optional additional two-year extension would result in equal (and/or slightly higher) consideration added to the total contract value. DSHS will enter this sole source contract with Home Care Pulse as the vendor meets all WAC training requirements and offers 103 courses using adult learning theory and other modalities to maintain the attention of the user.
