Description of Action:

In accordance with FAR Part 13 Simplified Acquisition Procedures, the Department Of Defense Education Activity (DoDEA), intends to award on a sole source basis a firm-fixed price purchase order to the Center for Talent Solutions (CTS), 600 17th Street - Suite 2800 South - Denver, CO 80208, for the following:

CLIN 0001 - Talent mapping and accountability profiling for each area office

CLIN 0002 - Management workshop at all DoDEA Procurement area offices to address engagement skills and planning, as well as develop specific talent solutions and accountability measures (including follow-up online work sessions)

CLIN 0003 - Employee work session and follow-up work sessions for all employees at all DoDEA Procurement area offices to identify individual needs, situation, dialogue skills, and develop an individual talent plan

CLIN 0004 - Compiled reporting for area offices and specific focus points

CLIN 0005 - Implementation assistance and follow up tools and work session support

Due to organizational rebalancing, DoDEA Procurement requires a dynamic workforce engagement process/solution that: 1) involves both managers and employees in the planning and implementation processes; 2) identifies action plans for each employee, manager, and specific agency demographics; 3) provides managers and employees with management and empowerment tools; 4) provides an on-going and interactive implementation plan for employees and managers; 5) guarantees capability results; and 6) can be developed and put into practice in a matter of weeks after contract award. While the market offers numerous planning, consulting, and educational solutions related to this need, CTS is the only source that provides proven, on-site, hands-on work sessions that provide the requisite processes/solutions within the timeframe required by DoDEA.

PSC is U004, NAICS Code is 541611, and Size standard is $15 Million. The estimated award date is 23 September 2015.
