About this file

This is an evaluation scoresheet for a Request for Statements of Qualifications (RFSQ) issued by the State of Utah Division of Purchasing through the Governor's Office of Economic Development for India Trade and Public Relations Representation services. The contract seeks a qualified vendor to provide trade and public relations representation services promoting Utah tourism and economic development in India over a five-year term. The selected vendor must demonstrate ability to travel to the United States, maintain offices with an account manager in India, provide consumer and travel trade media public relations experience, possess tourism industry experience, and submit proposals not exceeding forty pages. Mandatory requirements include offeror travel capability, India-based office infrastructure, public relations expertise, travel trade experience in tourism environments, and willingness to participate in selection committee interviews either in person or virtually.

The evaluation scoresheet establishes a total of 500 possible points divided between technical proposal evaluation (350 points) and interview evaluation (150 points), with a minimum threshold of 70 percent or 245 points required on technical criteria to advance to interviews. Technical evaluation criteria include public relations experience, consumer awareness experience, social media experience, travel trade experience, dedicated account manager qualifications, Utah and U.S. product knowledge, ability to demonstrate return on investment aligned with the state's mission and goals, and submission of a marketing plan for promoting Utah in 2026-2027 in India with an $80,000 marketing budget. Interview evaluation focuses on the offeror's ability to address committee questions and explain how the proposed plan accomplishes return on investment and state goals. The vendor achieving the highest overall ranking will be selected to negotiate contract terms at fair and reasonable compensation rates; if negotiations fail, the state may proceed with the next-ranked vendor. Pricing information is excluded from initial qualifications submissions.
