OPTION YEAR 4 TOTAL $_________ GRAND SUM TOTAL FOR BASE YEAR AND 4 OPTION YEARS $___________ (vi) The following is a detailed description of the requirements for this solicitation: Ralph H. Johnson VA Medical Center Party in the Park Concert Series Outreach Requirements STATEMENT OF WORK FOR REQUIREMENTS CONTRACT: Provide outreach booth exhibit space at each of the weekly events of the Party in the Park concert series hosted by Clear Channel I Heart Radio beginning June 2015. Requirement is for base year plus four option years. The Ralph H. Johnson VA Medical Center Outreach Committee will require an area close to the main stage to be roped off as a military appreciation section. This area will be a designated viewing space open exclusively to Veterans and military personnel (both active and retired). The Outreach Committee will also require space adjacent to the special military viewing area on which to place a VA-branded event tent. This tent will act as the entrance for eligible concert goers wishing to sit in the military appreciation section and will house VA volunteers and outreach specialists who will be in attendance to recruit potential Veteran patients. The VA will require the ability to hand out print and promotional materials within the tent and in/around the military appreciation section. In addition, the VA requires announcements of the military appreciation section in announcements for the Party in the Park concert series on all Clear Channel I Heart Radio stations broadcasting in the greater-Charleston area and similar recognition from the stage during each event. Include 4 option years in contract. REQUIREMENTS: Requires booth space no smaller than 15' x 15' for placement of a VA-branded entrance tent within 65' of stage front. This booth space should be directly adjacent to a roped-off military appreciation seating section that will be accessed exclusively by Veterans and military personnel. The booth space and seating area are required for each of the weekly events of the Party in the Park concert series held every Tuesday in June 2015; request 4 option years for weekly events for month of June or other dates up to 5 per year as determined by vendor booked dates. The Ralph H. Johnson VA Medical Center Outreach Committee will use the event tent to house volunteers and outreach specialists who will be in attendance to reach potential Veteran patients within the target demographic that the country music concerts attract. The Clear Channel Radio families of stations draw 300,000 listeners, which represents more than 43% of the market over the age of 12. The broad scope of content attracts male and female listeners across the age spectrum with a large concentration in the 45 and over crowd. Charleston VAMC is interested Veterans and in people who are currently serving in the military. The contractor will be required to allow the VA to place signage on/outside the entrance tent as well as in/around the seating area. The VA will also require the ability to hand out print and promotional materials within the tent and in/around the military appreciation seating area. The contractor will include the Ralph H. Johnson VA Medical Center in at least: "50 on-air :30 announcements on WEZL "50 online :30 announcements on WEZL.com "40 on-air :30 announcements on WRFQ "40 online :30 announcements on Q1045.com "40 on-air :30 announcements on WSC "40 online :30 announcements on 943WSC.com "40 on-air :30 announcements on WXLY "40 online :30 announcements on Y1025.com In addition, the contractor is required to give special recognition to the VA from the stage, identifying the Ralph H. Johnson VA Medical Center military appreciation section, at each of the four events of the concert series. INVOICE: Vendor will invoice within 30 days of event completion. The vendor may submit individual invoices for each of the separate events held during the concert series. EVALUATION CRITERIA: Vendor must demonstrate ability to provide all requirements, including: media announcements to meet or exceed requirements, experience organizing and promoting large-scale outdoor music events that reach target demographics of interest to Ralph H. Johnson VA Medical Center, and executing promotional radio campaigns to meet or exceed advertising goals including market impressions and reach. MARKET RESEARCH: The Party in the Park concert series, presented by Clear Channel Radio, is a free event held each year during the month of June. Various up-and-coming local and national country music performing artists will entertain audiences each Tuesday or other day of each week as determined by vendor dates booked at the Memorial Waterfront Park in Mount Pleasant. The 4th Annual Party in the Park promises to be Charleston's largest outdoor concert series, traditionally attracting around 4,000 participants each week. Clear Channel Radio promotes this event across their four-station radio spectrum in the greater Charleston area as well as online and across several social media platforms. The stations, which include WEZL, WRFQ, WSC, and WXLY, cover a wide range of musical interests (specifically country and classic rock) and information (news talk). Ralph H. Johnson VAMC is particularly interested in reaching the communities that listen to these stations as they align with the target demographics for our Outreach Committee - Veterans of varying ages who have earned benefits through the VA and are not yet enrolled in VA health care. A similar event, Party on the Point, is held during the summer at the Charleston Harbor Resort and Marina on Patriot's Point in Mt. Pleasant. However, these events are typically much smaller, featuring local and regional artists and cover bands, and do not reach the core group of participants that Charleston VAMC would need for maximum impact. The events are also not nearly as well publicized and would not offer wide-scale traditional or social media coverage. -----END OF SOW----- (vii) The estimated Performance Period is as follows: Base Year: 06-01-2015 through 06-30-2016 Option Year One: 06-01-2016 through 06-30-2017 Option Year Two: 06-01-2017 through 06-30-2018 Option Year Three: 06-01-2018 through 06-30-2019 Option Year Four: 06-01-2019 through 06-30-2020 Delivery FOB Destination to Ralph H Johnson, VA Medical Center, 109 Bee Street, Charleston, SC 29403 (viii) 52.212-1 Instructions to Offerors - commercial Items, apply to this solicitation with the following addenda, FAR 52.216-18 Ordering; VAAR 852.236-76 Correspondence; VAAR 852.237-70 Contractor Responsibilities; VAAR 852.270-1 Representatives of Contracting Officers; VAAR 852.273-75 Security Requirements for Unclassified Information Technology Resources (ix) 52.212-2, Evaluation - Commercial Items: FAR provision 52.212-2 applies to this solicitation.
