CDL Entry-Level Driver Training

Johnson County Community College is seeking a comprehensive software solution to manage and document Commercial Drivers License student training records for its Workforce Development and Continuing Education department. The primary objective is to implement an Entry Driver Level Training system that ensures full compliance with Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration and state regulatory requirements. The required solution must support theory and practical skills training for CDL Class A and B licenses and endorsements, offering both self-paced online and instructor-led options. Key technical specifications include Learning Management System integration, robust reporting and record-keeping functionality, and the ability to upload student records directly to the Training Provider Registry. The procurement process for solicitation 25-015 utilizes a best-value trade-off methodology rather than a lowest-price selection. Proposals are evaluated on a 100-point scale, with the highest weights assigned to the user interface and project approach, past performance, and key staff qualifications. The resulting contract will have an initial one-year term with the option for four one-year extensions, totaling up to five years, subject to annual funding. Awarded contractors must adhere to strict accessibility standards, including WCAG 2.1 AA and Section 508 compliance, and all personnel accessing campus or sensitive data must undergo mandatory criminal background checks.
