CIDT Implementation CPOR - Professional/Stakeholder Learning Demands

The contract involves providing external support to assist Chicago Public Schools in implementing its new accountability framework outlined in the Continuous Improvement and Data Transparency policy. The district has developed an extensive process for stakeholders—including students, families, community members, teachers, and school leaders—to develop and validate reporting indicators and ensure accurate measurement and reporting of school and district data. Once this information is made accessible, there is a significant need for professional development to help stakeholders interpret and utilize the data effectively. Since the district's internal capacity is insufficient to meet this large-scale learning demand, external expertise is sought to facilitate this transition and support stakeholder engagement and understanding. The solicitation, titled "CIDT Implementation CPOR - Professional/Stakeholder Learning Demands," was posted on June 24, 2024, with a response deadline of July 10, 2024. The contract size ranges from $500,000 to $2,000,000, and it is managed by Chicago Public Schools' procurement office under the Illinois jurisdiction. The project aims to ensure that stakeholders are equipped with the necessary knowledge and skills to leverage data for continuous improvement, ultimately fostering a more transparent and accountable education system across Chicago.
