About this opportunity

Hillsborough County Public Schools (HCPS) is pursuing a single/sole source procurement for PGC Technology Services, Inc.'s proprietary Ascriptica software application and related services. The procurement covers a comprehensive professional development management platform that enables organizations to create and post courses in a catalog, interface with learning management systems, and allow teachers and staff to view, register, and pay for courses while tracking certification status. Specific services include Workday telephone support, email support, product updates, and hosting services for high concurrency usage. The procurement notice was posted on February 27, 2025, with a response period ending on March 10, 2025, followed by a 3-day protest period from March 11-13, 2025. Interested firms can respond by uploading Exhibit B: Response to Purchase Single/Sole Source Commodities and Services via www.myvendorlink.com, with evaluations focused on determining if equivalent commodities and services exist. The School Board will consider a recommendation to waive the traditional solicitation process and proceed directly with PGC Technology Services.

The procurement appears to have no specific set-aside designations or restrictions on responding organizations. PGC Technology Services is positioned as the exclusive provider of the Ascriptica application, with no incumbent vendors mentioned. The company has over 15 years of experience in technology solutions for professional development management, with a primary mission of supporting teacher professional development and improving student achievement. While specific award values are not explicitly stated, the sole source nature of the procurement suggests a direct contract with PGC Technology Services. The procurement documentation indicates that multiple-year sole sourcing approvals are valid for one year and require re-posting and validation before renewal. The contract appears focused on a technology solution that integrates with existing learning management systems, providing a specialized platform for course management, registration, and professional development tracking for educational institutions.
