- R Professional, administrative and management support services Contract Specialist Support Services: The NOAA Office of External Customers, Acquisition Management Division provides acquisition services for International Trade Administration (ITA). The Office of Travel and Tourism Industries (OTTI) within the ITA requires part time, intermittent contract specialist support. As part of the work requirements the support contractor will be required to interact with the Travel and Tourism Contractor to develop and implement the integrated advertising, marketing and public relations campaign, together with a cooperative marketing program. The Government intends to negotiate on a sole source basis with Ms. Diane Husereau to provide contract support. The program objectives are to raise awareness of the U.S. as a travel destination and to motivate the purchase of travel services to enable visitation. In the 2003, Congress funded a promotion campaign to increase international travel to the United States. [Public Law 108-7, Section 210.] The 2004 Omnibus Appropriation bill reduced the initial level of available funding, but not the statutory imperative to develop and implement an international advertising and promotional campaign to encourage travel to the United States.

The period of performance of this requirement is from date of award through 12-months, with one additional 12-month option period. All work is to be performed on-site at Government facilities in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area.
