The document "Items_to_be_Returned_with_Proposal.docx" is a proposal submission requirements document for the Pinellas County Convention and Visitors Bureau (Visit St. Pete-Clearwater) in Florida, outlining the specific components vendors must include when responding to a request for proposal (RFP) for destination marketing research studies. The proposal submittal must be organized into five distinct tabs: Qualifications/Experience/Background, Approach, Statement of Work, Compensation (with a mandatory Price Proposal attachment), and Exceptions. Additionally, vendors are required to provide vendor references and complete several standard forms including ePayables, W-9, Addendum Acknowledgement, and Certificates of Insurance.

The proposal is specifically for developing and implementing integrated destination marketing research studies to promote tourism in Pinellas County. While specific pricing details are not provided in this document, the comprehensive proposal structure suggests a thorough evaluation process that will assess vendor capabilities, technical approach, pricing, and overall qualifications. The requirement for a detailed price proposal (Attachment A) indicates that cost will be a significant factor in vendor selection, with the ultimate goal of securing a research partner who can effectively support the county's tourism marketing objectives.
