About this opportunity
The Department of Defense Education Activity intends to issue a request for quote seeking vendor-hosted grades 3-5 single subject standalone databases in science, technology, engineering, mathematics, social studies, and geography to support its curricula. The databases must be commercial, off-the-shelf digital library content accessible throughout schools and remotely via a per student/staff licensing model. The contractor will provide all necessary personnel, technical support, training, and maintenance. Responses are due by September 22, 2020, with the agency anticipating multiple awards of firm-fixed price contracts.
The solicitation will be set aside for small businesses only, with a total set-aside designation. The NAICS code is expected to be 541511, and the predominate supply class/product code will likely relate to database development and hosting services. The total number of covered students and staff is approximately 42,200 users over the potential five-year ordering period. The government files indicate the agency intends to modify an existing contract to on-board the new standalone subject databases.
