Hosting for Absorb's Learning Managment System (Learning Curve)

The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) is seeking to continue hosting its Learning Management System, "Learning Curve," which is an Absorb-based system used statewide to provide FDOT employees and consultants access to the Department's training library and LinkedIn Learning courses. The system supports a minimum of 7,500 concurrent users and allows training providers to seamlessly upload and update training. Sections of Florida Statutes grant FDOT the authority to establish a Learning Management System for employee professional development and certification compliance. The intended sole-source provider is Blatant Media Corporation, the developer and maintainer of the Absorb-based Learning Curve system. The contract is valued at $600,000. FDOT has determined that Blatant Media Corporation is the only known source able to provide the necessary services for continued use of the Absorb online platform and learning management system.

This is a sole-source award, and Blatant Media Corporation is the incumbent vendor. The contract opportunity is limited to the state of Florida, specifically Leon County. No set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond are mentioned. The contract value is $600,000.
