Single source provider for BGC training

The Florida School for the Deaf and the Blind (FSDB) is seeking to procure a single source provider for Bilingual Grammar Curriculum (BGC) training for its staff for the 2023-2024 fiscal year. The estimated not-to-exceed amount for this procurement is $8,300. The intended sole source provider is Bilingual Grammar Curriculum LLC, located in Cambridge, MA, as this training is a proprietary product created and provided exclusively by this company. The BGC training is required for FSDB staff to use the Bilingual Grammar Curriculum materials. This single source procurement is being advertised for 15 business days, and vendors who believe they can fulfill this requirement are requested to provide information regarding their ability to supply the required services.

There are no authorized agents or dealers for this product.

This procurement is restricted to Bilingual Grammar Curriculum LLC as the sole source provider of the required training. There are no set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond. The incumbent vendor is Bilingual Grammar Curriculum LLC, as they are the creator and exclusive provider of the BGC training program. The budget for this procurement is not to exceed $8,300.
