Culture Training

Paragraph 1:

The State of North Dakota, through its Information Technology Department (ITD), is issuing an Informal Request for Proposals (RFP) to solicit qualified vendors to provide behavior-based leadership training, known as "Culture Training". The training is expected to focus on positively impacting organizational culture, achieving goals through people-first approaches, engaging leadership, and ensuring maximum participation and interaction. The selected vendor will be required to provide onsite train-the-trainer instruction in Bismarck, North Dakota in Fall 2024. Vendors must describe their proposed curriculum, training materials, and ability to coordinate the onsite training. The evaluation criteria include the vendor's proposed solution (70%) and their background/qualifications (10%). Proposals are due by July 16, 2024, and the contract term is expected to begin on September 1, 2024, with an option for the State to renew for one additional 12-month period.

Paragraph 2:

The RFP does not mention any set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond. It also does not list any incumbent vendors or current contractors. The RFP indicates that the State is not responsible for any taxes and is exempt from sales tax, but it does not provide any specific pricing terms, award values, or budget ranges. The State reserves the right to invite the awarded vendor to provide additional training or services in the future.
