Description

The City of Sarasota ("CITY") is seeking proposals from qualified contractor(s) to provide Advertising, Event Planning, Marketing, and Multimedia Services in support of various City Departments and Special Dependent Districts. The solicitation includes three distinct Scopes of Work (SOW), and the CITY reserves the right to award one or more contracts—or none at all—based on what best serves its interests.

Proposers may respond to one option, any combination of options, or all the options identified in the Scopes of Work (SOW). Each SOW will be evaluated independently, and contracts will be awarded to the contractor(s) best qualified for each respective scope.

The City of Sarasota may award one or more contractor(s), potentially multiple contracts for General City Services, one contract for the Downtown Improvement District, and one contract for the Newtown Community Redevelopment Agency.
