Non-Competitive_Oversight_Committee_Justification_Form.docx

The document is a Non-Competitive Oversight Committee Justification Form related to the Pinellas County Convention and Visitors Bureau (Visit St. Pete-Clearwater) in Florida. The form appears to be a template for justifying a non-competitive procurement for a project involving destination marketing research studies. The form includes spaces for project details such as budget estimate, project duration, and project manager, but these specific fields are not filled out in this instance. The document indicates the Non-Competitive Oversight Committee has a review process involving four committee members (Merry Celeste, Don Crowell, Chris Rose, and Department ACA) who can approve or disapprove the non-competitive purchase.

The associated state and local contract opportunity is for developing and implementing integrated destination marketing research studies to promote tourism in Pinellas County, Florida. While specific budget and contract terms are not detailed in this document, the intent is clearly to engage a firm for comprehensive tourism research and marketing strategies. The form was revised on 05/05/2023, suggesting recent updates to the procurement process. The Non-Competitive Oversight Committee Justification Form appears to be an internal administrative document used to validate and document the rationale for proceeding with a non-competitive procurement method for this tourism-related research project.
