Contract source

Awarded vendors

  • Walsh Sheppard

Description

This contract awards public‑relations and ancillary communications services to a single vendor for the Alaska Industrial Development and Export Authority (AIDEA). The work includes document design, editing, publication, advertising, web communications, strategic communications planning, event support, and related ancillary services. AIDEA will issue individual Notice‑to‑Proceed (NTP) orders for each task, allowing the contractor to submit separate proposals and receive payment on a per‑NTP basis. The contract is a non‑guaranteed term agreement with an initial two‑year period, up to four one‑year renewal options, and a month‑to‑month hold‑over option. Funding is anticipated at $100‑$300 K per year, with a total ceiling of $1.8 M. Evaluation emphasizes experience, methodology, and cost, with a small Alaska Offeror Preference bonus. No bonds are required, but standard insurance is mandated.

Contract value

$800,000

The RFP notes an annual estimated budget of $100‑$300 K and a total contract ceiling of $1.8 M for the full six‑year potential term. Assuming AIDEA funds the contract at the midpoint of the annual range ($200 K) for the guaranteed two‑year base term, the base value would be roughly $400 K. Considering the likelihood of exercising at least two of the four optional renewals, a realistic mid‑point estimate for the contract’s eventual spend is about $800 K. This figure balances the stated budget ranges, the optional renewal structure, and typical utilization patterns for public‑relations work in a state agency.
