About this file

This document is a sole source justification letter from Savage Training Group LLC to the Orlando Police Department (OPD) for a specialized law enforcement training course. The training, entitled "Response to the Non-Criminal Barricade: Disengagement and Special Relationships®", is a unique course focused on non-criminal barricade scenarios, with a specific emphasis on Florida legal concepts. The course was submitted to the US Patent and Trademark Office in 2020 and received registration as an original training outline. The sole source opportunity is identified with a due date of Tuesday, November 5, 2024, at 5:00 p.m. (ET), with a potential contract start date of Monday, October 28, 2024.

The training course includes several distinctive elements that justify its sole source status, such as customization for Florida laws, a 3-page decision-making guide with risk/benefit analysis, dissemination of police agency disengagement policies, a sample police report template, and a "disengagement statement". Students will also receive permanent access to a file-sharing service with additional legal resources. The course specifically addresses unique Florida legal concepts like "public duty doctrine", "special relationship" cases, and "zone of risk", providing officers with specialized guidance on handling non-criminal barricade situations. Savage Training Group asserts they are the only training provider offering this comprehensive, state-specific training approach.

Ms. Brown, The Savage Training Group, a law enforcement training provider, has submitted a proposal to provide training to the Orlando Police Department (OPD). The reason OPD has requested our services is that we are the only provider of this training.

The training we have proposed is entitled Response to the Non-Criminal Barricade:

Disengagement and Special Relationships ®. In 2020, we submitted our course outline to the US Patent and Trademark Office, and they granted us a registration of our outline, ruling that it was unique and original to the Savage Training Group. We are the only training provider presenting this unique training course and there are several reasons this course is unlike any other.

1) Our training course is customized for Florida laws. This includes “public duty doctrine:

and “special relationship” cases in Florida.

2) Our course includes information on legal concepts unique to Florida including “zone of risk”. We provide a sample scenario and set of questions that students can use to guide a follow-on discussion with their legal advisors after the training course.

3) Our training includes a 3-page decision-making guide featuring a risk/benefit analysis and specific instructions for officers to use to avoid creating a “special relationship.

4) In our course we disseminate copies of police agency disengagement policies from around the country.

5) In our course we disseminate a sample police report for students to use when documenting their decision to disengage.

6) In our course we disseminate a “disengagement statement” to be used to sever a special relationship.

7) Students are granted immediate and permanent access to our file-sharing service, which includes additional reading material on the topic, laws, training articles and more.

You won’t find another training provider teaching a training course devoted solely to non-criminal barricades that includes the materials listed above. For that reason, we are the sole source provider of this training. If you have any additional questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out.
