You may add as much text as necessary. The box will expand to show all text.: ONI has a requirement to train workforce on Cloud and CyberSecurity technology using Amazon Web Service Platform. This requirement is a follow-on procurement to the current Linux Academy training subscription. Should Linux Academy subscription not be renewed, all enrolled students will subsequently lose any and all completed and in-progress coursework. As part of the hands-on learning option, Linux Academy offers a sand box area that students can use to establish their own cloud environment and each registered student has dedicated space. If not renewed, this sand box area would also be lost and depending on the level of complexity of the environment the student built would again pose a loss of productivity. Additionally, Linux is the only known provider that offers Cloud and CyberSecurity training under their subscription service.
You may add as much text as necessary. The box will expand to show all text.: This requirement will be posted in FEDBIZOPPS, along with this Limited Source Justification. Resulting award will be determined fair and reasonable based on published price lists, comparison to similar products and other available pricing techniques.
You may add as much text as necessary. The box will expand to show all text.: Market research was conducted via technical magazines, INTERNET sites and consultation with other Navy commands and Government employees. While other sources were identified, it was determined that completed and in-progress coursework for all enrolled students would be lost and other sources did not offer both Cloud and CyberSecurity training under their subscription.
You may add as much text as necessary. The box will expand to show all text.: Other providers do not have the depth of material and services needed to meet the governments requirements. Additionally, Linux periodically adds content to their subscriptions at no additional cost.
You may add as much text as necessary. The box will expand to show all text.: ONI CIO expects the on-line training solution to meet the needs of the agency for at least the next 2 years. At that time or sooner, we will research new technologies for viable solutions and compete the requirement in fair and open market.
