Continuing Legal Education (CLE)

The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, through the Office of General Counsel, seeks a web-based continuing legal education (CLE) platform to serve approximately 150 attorneys and paralegals nationwide, including staff at Headquarters, the Departmental Enforcement Center, and Regional and Field Offices. The platform must provide 24/7/365 access to current, accredited CLE content covering legislative, regulatory, litigation, administrative, ethics, procurement, and housing law topics, with full compliance across all 50 states and Puerto Rico. The contractor is required to deliver on-demand and live training, issue completion certificates, track user participation, and directly report CLE credits to state jurisdictions where permitted. User account management must be handled accurately based on government-provided lists, with 24-hour help desk support for technical and access issues, and monthly reporting on usage, completions, and system downtime. Invoicing is required monthly with supporting documentation, and the contract includes a one-year base period with four optional one-year extensions. The solicitation, identified as FEBCC and posted by GSA/FAS, is a sources sought notice under NAICS code 611430 with no set-aside provisions. Responses must be submitted via email to the Contract Specialist and Contracting Officer by June 5, 2026, with no formal page or format restrictions outlined. Evaluation factors include platform availability, content relevance, accreditation coverage, reporting accuracy, help desk responsiveness, and user support, but no weights, risk ratings, or award methodology are specified since this is a market research initiative, not a formal RFP. The place of performance is Washington, D.C., though services are delivered remotely, and no physical packaging, FOB terms, or security clearance requirements apply. The contractor must ensure compliance with all CLE accreditation standards, maintain secure access via standard web browsers, and support future SSO integration without handling classified data. No clause numbers, representations, certifications, pricing data, or unique entity identifiers are solicited or required at this stage.
