About this file

This is a procurement memorandum from the Duval County Tourist Development Council (TDC) requesting single source award authorization for golf tourism marketing services in Northeast Florida. The TDC seeks to contract with Florida's First Coast of Golf for regional marketing and industry development services promoting Northeast Florida as a golf destination. The contract term runs from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027, with two one-year renewal options available. The TDC certifies that Florida's First Coast of Golf is the only regionally and strategically positioned organization capable of providing the required direct marketing, agency-level collateral, representation, and regional partnership necessary to effectively compete with state and national competitors in golf tourism marketing.

The total proposed contract cost is $228,750.00, funded through the TDC Budget FY 26-27 from Fund 10301, Center 231002, Account 549006, Activity 00000949. This is a single source provider award, meaning the services would not be competitively bid. The TDC justifies the single source approach based on Florida's First Coast of Golf's unique regional positioning and capability to deliver golf-specific marketing services that would not duplicate existing services. The memorandum references supporting documentation including a Single Source Justification Form, Administrative Award with Scope of Work, approved TDC Minutes, Budget information, and the Vendor FY 26-27 Budget, all of which are attached to the request.
