Description

The U.S. Department of Education is soliciting proposals for up to ten indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contracts, one for each Regional Educational Laboratory region, to support education stakeholders in using longitudinal data, research, and evidence to improve student outcomes. Required capabilities include contract and program management, coordination with education agencies and technical-assistance providers, stakeholder partnership development, applied education research, training/coaching/technical assistance, and dissemination through websites, newsletters, blogs, social media, events, reports, toolkits, and other accessible products. The solicitation uses a phased submission process. Phase I requires an offeror-capabilities submission demonstrating relevant research, educator-training, and long-term education-agency partnership experience. Phase II requires a technical volume, past-performance information, concept papers for one Task 4 training/coaching/technical-support project and one Task 5 applied-research project focused on mathematics or literacy, a business/pricing volume, a completed REL Budget Workbook, and—when applicable—a negotiated small-business subcontracting plan. The initial Task Order #001 covers a 12-month period and includes firm-fixed-price management, coordination, partnership, and regular dissemination work, plus time-and-materials activities for specified training, technical assistance, applied research, and dissemination tasks. The work involves moderate information-security and privacy requirements, including potential access to personally identifiable information and controlled unclassified information.
