ATTACHMENT 01 Budget Plan Worksheets.xlsx

This is a Budget Plan Worksheet attachment related to Hawaii Tourism Authority's RFP 27-02 for Global Meetings, Conventions, & Incentives Marketing services. The document outlines a three-year budget framework covering 2027 through 2029 with specified budget categories including Paid Media, Public Relations, Travel Trade, Research, Account Administration, and Other expenses. Account Administration costs are capped at a maximum of 69 percent of the total budget. The worksheet includes line-item breakdowns for each budget year and a staffing section for 2027 that captures position titles, experience levels, hourly rates, time allocation percentages, and full-time equivalent calculations.

The budget worksheet contains primarily zero-dollar allocations across all line items and staffing categories, indicating this is a template format awaiting population with actual proposed costs and staffing details from respondents. The document requires contractors to provide comprehensive budget information demonstrating how they will allocate resources across marketing, administrative, and operational functions for the three-year contract period, with particular attention to maintaining appropriate ratios between direct marketing activities and administrative overhead costs.
