The current video program contract expires at the end of November 2017. To ensure that California law enforcement agencies in the POST Program continue to receive these valuable resources, POST will once again need to solicit a two-year contract for digital video-based law enforcement training program design, development, production, media storage, and distribution/fulfillment services.
This 24-month contract will span seven months (from December 2017 to June 2018) of the 2017-2018 fiscal year, at an estimated cost of $961,000.
The total scope of work proposed for the POST Training Video Program in FY2017-2018 and FY2018-2019 includes:
Task 1: Production and delivery of up to six (6) in-service, topic-specific law enforcement training videos per year with companion reference guides. The videos address contemporary law enforcement issues and are designed to meet POST’s continuing professional training requirements. The videos are up to 120 minutes per program and are delivered as DVDs and in digital format for streaming media services.
Task 2: Production and delivery of up to two (2) in-service, Homeland Security/Terrorism Prevention-specific law enforcement videos per year. Similar to Task 1, these videos meet Homeland Security law enforcement training needs. The videos are up to 120 minutes each and are delivered as DVDs and in digital format for streaming media services. Completion of this task is contingent upon U.S. Department of Homeland Security funding sources.

Task 4: Production and delivery of up to two (2) long-form videos per year in support of specialized POST projects or Bureau programs. These videos will meet specialized POST program training requirements and/or address timely law enforcement issues targeting the needs of specialized groups such as law enforcement supervisors, Regular Basic Course trainees, or public safety dispatchers. Videos are up to 60 minutes each and are delivered in digital format for streaming media services.
Task 5: Production and delivery of up to three (3) short-form videos per year in support of specialized POST projects or Bureau programs. Similar to Task 4, these videos will be designed in a format that features short vignettes, scenarios, or reenactments to meet specialized Learning Portal program requirements. Video scenario(s) total up to 15 minutes each and are delivered in digital format for streaming media services.
Task 6: DVD inventory storage, inventory management, distribution, and fulfillment services. Includes secure inventory storage, mail distribution and fulfillment of all existing and newly produced POST DVD video programs.
