Solicitation # BD-26-1026-DOE02-DOE01-123386
The Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education is establishing a prequalified list of vendors to deliver training courses for certified American Sign Language (ASL) interpreters. The primary goal of this initiative is to improve interactions between schools and families within the K-12 education setting. This procurement utilizes a non-statewide blanket purchase method for a performance period running from December 4, 2025, to June 30, 2031, with a bid opening date of December 31, 2029. Selected vendors will operate on a fee-for-service basis, providing training that individuals or organizations may utilize at their own expense. To ensure consistency and quality, vendors must employ Department-approved instructors and strictly adhere to the provided syllabus and training materials. The curriculum consists of eight modules covering educational interpretation, legal meetings, and various disability categories. Vendors are responsible for participant recruitment and must ensure all trainees demonstrate ASL proficiency through recognized certifications, such as National RID or BEI certification. Additionally, any utilized learning management systems must comply with state digital accessibility policies and Enterprise Information Security Policies and Standards. Award eligibility is determined by a point-based evaluation scorecard that assesses staff qualifications, course format, and the vendor's commitment to anti-racist practices and racial equity. Mandatory requirements include the submission of vendor assurance forms, contact references, and certifications regarding state and federal employment laws. The procurement also prioritizes participants in the Small Business Purchasing Program. All deliverables created under the agreement remain the property of the agency, and vendors must comply with standard Commonwealth of Massachusetts contract terms and intellectual property rights.
