DESCRIPTION
The issuing organization seeks a vendor to provide public education and ongoing engagement campaign services for a one-year contract period. The selected vendor will develop and maintain a recognizable statewide campaign platform, establish a primary public call to action, build consistent public exposure, address related resilience topics over time, and measure awareness, understanding, and action.
The vendor will develop the content and creative materials needed to support the approved campaign strategy. Potential deliverables include fact sheets, one-pagers, infographics, newsletters, preparedness checklists, business continuity materials, toolkits, social media content, digital advertising, graphics, short-form video, photography, animation, audio, public-service announcements, event materials, presentations, earned-media materials, and state-approved website content. Website design, development, hosting, coding, cybersecurity administration, maintenance, and technical support are outside the contract scope and will be performed by a separate contractor.
The vendor will maintain documentation of media purchases and performance, including placement information, run dates, delivery data, proof of performance, and actual expenditures. The work will also include developing practical materials and toolkits that approved partners can use to distribute campaign information. Questions must be submitted by October 8, 2026.
