RFQ Submission Requirements Statement of Objectives RECOVERY: DIGITAL TELEVISION (DTV) TRANSITION CONSUMER EDUCATION AND AWARENESS CAMPAIGN SUPPORT SERVICES PAPER COPIES OF THIS SOLICITATION WILL NOT BE ISSUED AND TELEPHONE REQUEST OR FAX REQUESTS FOR THE SOLICITATION WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED. This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items prepared in accordance with the format in FAR Part 12.207(c). This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; quotes are being requested and written solicitation will not be issued. All firms or individuals responding must be registered with the Central Contractor Registration (CCR) (www.ccr.gov). North American Industrial Classification Standard (NAICS) 541820 and Size Standard of $7 Million apply to this solicitation. The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) is in the final stage of implementing the congressionally mandated nationwide transition to digital broadcast television. Approximately one-third of the Nation’s 1800 full-power television stations have already completed this transition. The remaining two-thirds of full-power broadcast television stations will transition on or before June 12, 2009. In the television markets where the digital television (DTV) transition has been completed, the FCC has learned that most individuals and households can successfully make the transition by following instructions provided with their digital-to-analog converter box or by accessing mass media materials (such as information found on the FCC’s and other entities’ Internet sites, fact sheets and other printed materials available in libraries and community centers, calls to FCC or broadcast station help lines, or informational/demonstration programs presented by FCC staff, local television stations, and community groups). This request for quotation (RFQ) seeks proposals from offerors with the ability to provide advertising and public relations expertise, a variety of media services, publications, and targeted distribution services that will supplement and expand our consumer education and awareness campaign relating to the digital television transition. This is a full and open competition to enter into a contract for the successful implementation of a series of defined tasks that are outlined in detail below. The contractor will be responsible to provide solutions to meet all of the objectives of this solicitation. However, not all of the tasks outlined below may be utilized by the FCC in the conduct of its outreach campaign. In essence, the FCC requires a vendor with the ability and wherewithal to provide a media “tool kit,” which would permit the FCC to pick and choose the deliverables based on the overall outreach plan and the consumer education needs identified. Thus, for each of the tasks outlined, we require that a price be assigned to each specific item outlined in this Statement of Objectives (“SOO”). Please submit any questions before 12:00 PM Noon Eastern, on April 13, 2009. Submit offers or any questions to eProposals@fcc.gov. Offerors who fail to complete and submit all requirements may be considered non-responsive. The government contemplates awarding an Indefinite-Delivery Indefinite-Quantity (IDIQ) contract pursuant to FAR Part 16.5. The FCC intends to issue eight (8) Task Orders resulting from this solicitation, although only Task Order 1 (labor-hour) and part of Task 2 (firm-fixed-price) will be issued at the outset. Of the remaining Task Orders, numbers 4 and 8 as well as parts of numbers 2 and 3 may be issued on a firm-fixed-price basis, while numbers 5-7 as well as the remaining parts of numbers 2 and 3 may be issued on a labor-hour basis.
