Marketing and Communication Services

The buyer requires a vendor to deliver comprehensive marketing and communication services for a one-year contract period. The selected contractor must provide strategic counsel and hands-on execution covering public relations, digital media, stakeholder communications, media relations, content development, crisis communications, and event planning. Additionally, the vendor needs to manage digital platforms, create long-form content, and develop marketing campaigns that promote the state as a hub for innovation, investment, and entrepreneurship. Certain expenses, such as printing, ad buys, media purchases, photography, videography, and promotional items, allow subcontracting and separate invoicing with prior agency approval. The buyer restricts eligibility strictly to onshore USA organizations, and the contractor will perform all work offsite. While the buyer requests proposals to determine the budget, it has not provided specific evaluation criteria or total contract value limits. Interested bidders must submit all questions no later than September 9, 2026.
