About this opportunity
This is a sole source solicitation issued by Denver City and Denver County in Colorado for College Board 9th grade examination services. The procurement seeks to acquire standardized testing materials and services specifically designed for ninth-grade students, with the College Board identified as the exclusive vendor capable of providing these specialized educational assessment offerings. The deliverables include examination administration, standardized testing protocols, scoring methodologies, and educational standards compliance services aligned with Colorado's curriculum requirements for ninth-grade students. The College Board has been determined to possess unique qualifications and proprietary rights necessary to deliver the required examination services, including their distinctive assessment frameworks and scoring systems specific to 9th grade evaluations. The solicitation was posted on May 4, 2017, with a proposal due date of May 10, 2017, providing a compressed timeline of six days for submission. This sole source approach bypasses competitive bidding to streamline the acquisition process and ensure the state obtains the specialized educational assessment services deemed essential for implementation across Colorado's education system.
The available documentation does not specify set-aside designations or restrictions limiting responses to particular categories of organizations, nor does it identify disadvantaged enterprise requirements or preferences. No incumbent vendors, current contractors, or existing infrastructure integration requirements are detailed in the solicitation materials provided. Similarly, the contract documentation does not disclose a specific award value or budget range for this procurement. The sole source justification establishes that the College Board's exclusive capability and proprietary assessment methodologies justify the non-competitive procurement approach, though financial terms and award amounts are not included in the available materials.
