Description

The Washington State Auditor’s Office is seeking market research from qualified nonfiction authors and book designers to update its 2007 historical publication. The effort is split into two tasks: (1) authoring roughly 20 new pages that bring the office’s history up to the present, conducting interviews, and drafting captions for supplied photos; and (2) a designer who will layout the revised text, incorporate images, and deliver a complete InDesign (or comparable) package ready for printing, including at least two rounds of revisions. No budget is disclosed; the agency requests pricing information and examples of similar work to shape a future solicitation. • Update SAO history – ~20 new pages (≈ 25 % of new edition). • Conduct 5‑7 interviews and write photo captions. • Provide fully packaged design files (InDesign) with two revision cycles. • Submit pricing, capability statements, and any referrals by July 31 2026.

Budget estimate

$5,000 – $15,000

No contract value is disclosed, so a reasonable estimate can be built from typical rates for historical writing and book design. Assuming a writer charges $200‑$400 per finished page for 20 pages ($4,000‑$8,000) and a designer charges $3,000‑$7,000 for layout, revisions, and file packaging, total compensation would likely fall between $7,000 and $15,000. Factors influencing the range include the writer’s experience, depth of interview work, and complexity of the design package.
