The General Services Administration (GSA), Office of Human Resources Management (OHRM), Talent Development Center of Expertise intends to issue a sole source purchase order to Oracle to acquire the need to continue providing GSA On-line University (OLU) Learning Management System (LMS) services. The OLU must have a LMS platform to deliver learning services. GSA employs approximately 12,000 Government employees and 5,000 contractors in the Central Office, Washington, D.C., and 11 regional nationwide locations (Boston, MA; New York City, NY; Philadelphia, PA; Atlanta, GA; Chicago, IL; Kansas City, MO; Ft. Worth, TX; Denver, CO; San Francisco, CA; Seattle, WA; Washington, DC) with various smaller offices across the nation and abroad. GSA Online University is currently hosted on the Learn.com Learning Management System (LMS) platform. This hosting contract is expiring on September 30, 2015. GSA is soliciting a contract with a LMS provider to host its On-Line University to continue providing learning activities to its employees and contractors. The OLU supports GSA OHRM needs and their stakeholder's learning requirements by providing an enterprise-wide system to manage on-line training, instructor led training, individual development plans, and competency management. This Performance Work Statement (PWS) documents current requirements for the support of the GSA OLU LMS current system configuration. 1. OBJECTIVES The LMS is integral to capturing the necessary data elements on the GSA workforce that would aid in the identification of areas where required training or continuous learning requirements are not being met. The OLU LMS mission is to support a blended learning approach to employee learning and development and managing training from enrollment through course completion. The continuance of the current OLU LMS configuration is key to current and future education, training, and development requirements that facilitate learning and complete required administrative requirements in a single system while providing an efficient platform to increase our Return on Investment (ROI) for human capital management and development. Through the services offered under this contract, the Government expects to realize the following objectives: ? Implement an enterprise-wide training model through a single, centralized LMS that supports GSA current and future education, training, and development functions ?
