Attachment 7_Optional_Proposal_Submission_Checklist.pdf

This is an Optional Proposal Submission Checklist for the Hawaii HRSP (Hawaii Revised Statutes Program) marketing and communications services procurement. The document outlines the required components and formatting standards for vendor proposals responding to HRSP's request for end-to-end marketing and communications services to support the public launch, community awareness, and employer and employee participation in the program. Proposals must be submitted as a single PDF file with the correct naming format (CompanyName_HRSP_Proposal.pdf) and must include all required sections in the specified order: cover letter signed by an authorized representative, company background, technical proposal, sample work, and cost proposal with detailed budget and justification.

The checklist establishes mandatory submission requirements including verification that the Adobe-readable file format is confirmed before upload and that any confidential information is clearly marked within the proposal. Vendors must ensure all proposal sections are properly named and included sequentially to meet the submission standards. The checklist serves as a quality control tool to verify compliance with proposal guidelines prior to submission for the 2026-2027 contract period.
