ATTACHMENT 01 Budget Plan Worksheets.xlsx

This is a Budget Plan Worksheet attachment for the Hawaii Tourism Authority's RFP 27-09 for Hawaii Tourism Destination Brand Marketing services in the Oceania major market area. The Hawaii Tourism Authority seeks a qualified contractor to provide comprehensive destination brand marketing services for the Hawaiian Islands with primary emphasis on Australia and Aotearoa-New Zealand, limited to leisure travel marketing and excluding Meetings, Conventions & Incentives (MCI) market segments. The budget planning document is structured for a three-year contract period spanning 2027 through 2029, establishing the framework for cost projections and resource allocation across the contract term.

The Budget Plan Worksheet provides a template for budgeting across five primary service categories: Consumer Travel, Trade Public Relations, Co-operative Program, Account Administration, and Other expenses. The document includes detailed breakdowns by year (2027, 2028, and 2029) and itemizes staffing budgets, travel costs, and retainer fees. The worksheet contains placeholder fields for program costs, percentage allocations, staffing information including position titles, experience levels, hourly rates, time allocation percentages, and full-time equivalent (FTE) calculations. All current line items in the template show zero values, indicating this is a blank planning document awaiting contractor proposals and budget submissions as part of the RFP response requirements.
