About this file

This document is a Question and Answer (Q&A) response related to an Invitation for Bid (IFB) issued by the Arkansas Department of Public Safety (DPS) Arkansas Division of Emergency Management (ADEM) for an Online Training Platform. The IFB is seeking pricing and a contract for this platform, which will have Level 1 external users and Level 2 and Level 3 DPS employee users. The platform must meet all requirements stated in the IFB, but details on the platform's functionality are not required at this time. The IFB does not provide a budget amount, as this information is not relevant for prospective contractors to submit a response. The 600 courses and course materials will be provided by the State, not the contractor. Internet Explorer support has been removed, and contractors may add additional rows on the Cost Breakdown Sheet to reflect annual cost escalations.

Regarding pricing, the Q&A clarifies that no pricing workbook or budget amount is provided, as this information is not relevant for prospective contractors to submit a response. The IFB also does not mention any set-asides, incumbent vendors, or funding sources, as this is likely standard procurement information not included in the Q&A document.
