BidPulsar Analysis
A practical, capture-style breakdown of fit, requirements, risks, and next steps.
The New York State Education Department (NYSED), via the Contract Administration Unit, intends to contract with NYSUT ELT to develop and deliver an educator course on foundational literacy skills and the science of reading (SoR). The course must be aligned with NYSED standards and guidelines and is structured as nine sessions: five synchronous and four asynchronous, totaling 25 hours. The notice shows a response deadline of 2026-02-23 and a contract term of four years. This appears to be a directed award to NYSUT ELT, so most other vendors should treat it as a low-probability competitive opportunity unless the attached PDF indicates an open solicitation path.
Secure a partner (identified as NYSUT ELT in the notice) to design and deliver a NYSED-aligned, evidence-based Science of Reading professional learning course for educators, using a blended format (5 live sessions + 4 self-paced sessions) totaling 25 instructional hours over a four-year contract term.

- Quality assurance to ensure evidence-based content and consistent alignment to NYSED expectations
- Review the attached PDF for procurement method (sole source vs. competitive), required submission format, and any mandatory forms
- Course design narrative describing the nine-session structure (5 synchronous, 4 asynchronous) and how the total 25 hours are allocated
