Notice of Intent to Sole Source: Process Safety Workshop

The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), Hanford Field Office (HFO), intends to award a non-competitive, firm-fixed-price contract to the American Institute of Chemical Engineers (AIChE) Academy for a comprehensive, customized 4-day "Process Safety Boot Camp" training workshop. This intensive training is necessary to build specialized Process Safety Management (PSM) skillsets internally for federal safety oversight staff involved with the Hanford Direct-Feed Low-Activity Waste (DFLAW) facility's high-hazard radiological and chemical vitrification operations. • The training curriculum is proprietary to the Center for Chemical Process Safety (CCPS) Risk-Based Process Safety (RBPS) framework. • AIChE is the unique, preeminent credentialing authority and the original author/proprietary owner of the CCPS RBPS framework. • The contract will be for a customized, CCPS-certified curriculum with DFLAW-specific technical scenarios and case studies. • The government is seeking a training provider that can deliver this customized curriculum.
