The Job Corps is a training program for youth ages 16 to 24 at time of enrollment. It is primarily residential with some non-residential components. The program provides free educational and vocational training, free housing in dormitories, work experience, counseling, basic health care and other support services. The mission of the program is to attract eligible young adults, teach them the skills they need to become employable and independent, and to place them in meaningful jobs, further education, or military service. Ultimately, the training should enable the students to become self-sufficient members of society who contribute to the community as taxpayers and good citizens. Job Corps intends to award a one-time purchase order for the services identified herein. Job Corps Region VI - Seattle seeks a contractor to photograph students, staff, and facilities at the following 11 Job Corps Center (JCC) sites: 1) Angell JCC, 335 N.E. Blogett Rd, Yachats, OR 97498; 2) Cascades JCC, 7782 Northern State Rd, Sedro-Woolley, WA 98284; 3) Centennial JCC, 3201 Ridgecrest Dr, Nampa, ID 83687; 4) Columbia Basin JCC, Bldg. 2402 - 6739 24th St., Moses Lake, WA 98837; 5) Curlew JCC, 3 Campus St, Curlew, WA 99118; 6) Ft. Simcoe JCC, 40 Abella Ln, White Swan, WA 98952; 7) Pivot JCC, 2508 NE Everett, Portland, OR 97232; 8) Springdale JCC, 31224 E Historic Columbia River Hwy,Troutdale, OR 97060; 9) Timber Lake JCC, 59868 E.

Our goal is to acquire a library of full color quality photographs from each site, and our intent is to use these photos for a wide variety of media needs including brochures, the Regional web site, pre-movie "slide" advertising, point of purchase advertising displays, etc. The chosen contractor will 1) Be a professional photographer with five or more years' experience with photographing people, events, and facilities; 2)Work with Regional Office contact to establish a shooting schedule no later than one week after contract is awarded; 3) Work with a Job Corps designated contact person at each Job Corps site during the photo sessions; 4) Work from a checklist of required subject matter for photos. These photos will capture Job Corps students participating in academic classes, vocational training, recreational events (e.g. basketball or pool) and in residential areas. Most shots will be fairly close up and will focus on one or two individuals engaged in an activity rather than large groups. Photos should also capture exteriors of some key buildings at each Center. It is estimated that 80% of photos taken will have people as the subject, with 20% of the photos being of facilities. It is also estimated that half of the photos will be taken indoors (e.g. dorm rooms, classrooms) while half will be taken outdoors (e.g. vocational work sites, basketball court); 5) Spend no more than one eight hour day at each site, and may spend longer than that only with the prior written approval of the Contracting Officer; 6) Work with the Job Corps Center contact person to ensure that all persons photographed sign releases. Release forms will be provided by Job Corps; 7) Provide proofs (electronic format acceptable) to Regional Office contact after first shoot and receive approval before proceeding to additional Job Corps Centers; 8) Complete shooting at all Centers by July 31, 2002; 9) Provide all proofs for final approval to the Regional Office by August 16, 2002; 10) Provide final deliverables to the Regional Office no later than August 30, 2002 in the following formats: high resolution tifs (20 meg), and jpegs (72 dpi). Ten sets of the tifs and jpegs should be provided on CD ROM to the Regional Office. Transportation of deliverables will be FOB destination; 12) If a reshoot is required by the Contracting Officer the offeror will be reimbursed at the same fee rate as the original shoot and for all expenses. For any reshoot required because of an act of God or the fault of a third party, the offeror will charge no additional fee, but will be reimbursed for all expenses; 13) Allow Job Corps unlimited usage rights on all deliverables; and 14) Commercial interim payments will only be made for segments of work that have been approved by the Regional Office. Offerors must provide for evaluation at least five hard copy samples of prior work (which will be returned at the applicant's request), a description/resume' of past work, three client references, and soonest availability to do this work. Offerors must also include a price quote that covers the cost for all time, materials, travel, and usage rights. Usage right costs may be broken down by medium if desired. Transportation costs must include a breakout of expenses, e.g., mode of transportation, lodging, meals and incidental expenses. All travel costs incurred by the contractor will be subject to the federal travel regulations, see www.policyworks.gov. In the interests of time, the contractor has the choice of traveling by air versus automobile. Airfare shall be based upon the lowest available cost, coach or economy airfare. The use of any airfare other than coach or economy must be approved in writing in advance by the Contracting Officer. Offers will be evaluated on the offeror's level of experience, past performance, and price. The Government may award without discussions. Award will be based on best value to the Government.
