Description
The Commonwealth of Massachusetts, Department of Conservation and Recreation (DCR), is establishing a Master Service Agreement (MSA) to procure health‑ and safety‑related certification and training, as well as environmental and compliance training services. Vendors may submit rates for a wide array of courses—including first aid, CPR/AED, lifeguard, water‑safety, asbestos, lead‑safe renovation, mold remediation, OSHA outreach, and many other occupational safety and environmental topics—and provide the necessary instructional staff, curriculum materials, and certifications. The contract is a rolling‑enrollment, multi‑year MSA with an estimated annual spend of roughly $100 K, an initial three‑year term extending through January 31 2025 and a possible two‑year renewal through January 31 2027. Participation requires electronic submission via COMMBUYS, a Prompt Payment Discount, and compliance with the Commonwealth’s environmentally preferable products policy.
• Scope: Deliver statewide health‑ and safety training (e.g., lifeguard, CPR) and environmental/compliance training (e.g., asbestos, lead, mold).
• Delivery: Courses can be offered at DCR sites, bidder facilities, or online; vendor must cover the entire Commonwealth or selected counties.
• Evaluation: Based on experience, qualified staff, course catalogs, pricing, geographic coverage, Prompt Pay Discount, and environmental compliance.
