Description

NASA/LaRC has a requirement for 12 Langley technical supervisors/managers for continued leadership coaching. This work is required for retooling and reskilling of a portion of the technical workforce.

NASA/LaRC intends to purchase the items from Pulse Point Coaching, as the only known source who can meet Agency requirements. Pulse Point Coaching is an International Coaching Federation certified company. The original contract between NASA Langley and Pulse Point Coaching was completed in April 2005. To introduce a new coaching firm at this time would cost the government start-up time and additional meeting fees to establishing new coaching relationships and getting the coaches up to speed on the coaching participants’ issues.

The Government intends to acquire a commercial item using FAR Part 12. Interested organizations may submit their capabilities and qualifications to perform the effort in writing to the identified point of contact not later than 4:30 p.m. local time on January 25, 2007. Such capabilities/qualifications will be evaluated solely for the purpose of determining whether or not to conduct this procurement on a competitive basis. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed effort on a full and open competition basis, based upon responses to this notice, is solely within the discretion of the government. Oral communications are not acceptable in response to this notice.

All responsible sources may submit an offer which shall be considered by the agency.

An Ombudsman has been appointed. See NASA Specific Note “B”. Any referenced notes may be viewed at the following URLs linked below.
