NOTICE OF PROPOSED PROCUREMENT

1.	The objective of this request for e-Learning design and
development is to produce an eLearning program that will allow
Aviation Systems Technicians (AVN Tech) and Aircraft Structures
Technicians (ACS Tech) to manufacture low and medium pressure
hose assemblies.  

1.1.	The eLearning program would include:

	1.1.1.	a self-paced pre-course package to replace the theory
portion of the course, and 

	1.1.2.	an electronic performance system support (EPSS) tool,
which would serve as both a 			training aid (to replicate the
practical training on the course) and as a job aid for use by
			graduate students back at their home units.  The EPSS tool
would replicate the 				procedures in the manufacture of low and
medium pressure hose assemblies.

2.	Success Factors. This project will be determined to be a
success if:

	2.1.	The theory portion of the course is delivered
asynchronously;

	2.2.	Course delivery eliminates the requirement for serial
scheduling, by allowing open entry 			and open exit; 

	2.3.	The product provides an easy to use performance support
tool that can be employed at 			the job site; and

	2.4.	The pre-study packages enable the students to pass the
practical evaluation for the 			qualification

3. 	Basis of Selection - Highest Combined Rating of Technical
Merit and Price 

3.1.	To be declared responsive, a bid must: 

	a.	comply with all the requirements of the bid solicitation; and
	b.	meet all mandatory criteria; and
	c.	obtain the required minimum of 70 points overall for the
technical evaluation 			criteria which are subject to point
rating. The rating is performed on a scale of 			2000 points.

3.2.	Bids not meeting (a), (b) and (c) will be declared
non-responsive. 

3.3.	The selection will be based on the highest responsive
combined rating of technical merit and price. The ratio will be
60 % for the technical merit and 40% for the price. 

3.4.	To establish the technical merit score, the overall
technical score for each responsive bid will be determined as
follows: total number of points obtained / maximum number of
points available multiplied by the ratio of 60 %.

3.5.	To establish the pricing score, each responsive bid will be
prorated against the lowest evaluated price and the ratio of 40
%. 

3.6.	For each responsive bid, the technical merit score and the
pricing score will be added to determine its combined rating. 

3.7.	Neither the responsive bid obtaining the highest technical
score nor the one with the lowest evaluated price will
necessarily be accepted. The responsive bid with the highest
combined rating of technical merit and price will be recommended
for award of a contract.
