RFQ2627001-Executive Programs International Study Tour – April 3-11, 2027

ATTACHMENT A – SPECIFICATIONS

1. Introduction

Baruch College of The City University of New York is seeking qualified firms with deep expertise in Morocco and Portugal (and San Francisco/Silicon Valley) to support the development and execution of a high-quality international study tour program. This initiative is part of the Zicklin School of Business’s Executive MBA and MS programs, which require students to participate in an immersive 8-to-10-day international experience. The program aims to expose students to diverse business environments and practices, enhancing their global perspective and understanding of international business operations. The selected firm(s) will play a critical role in creating a robust itinerary that aligns with the academic goals of the College and delivers meaningful engagement with organizations and institutions abroad.

2. Project Objectives and Scope

2.1 Overview

Each Zicklin School of Business Executive MBA and MS program requires its students to participate in an international study tour. This study tour is an 8-to-10-day experience in one or two international destinations that exposes students to a wide range of organizations and institutions in a different country or countries that will broaden their knowledge of business globally. The study in one or more international locations is intended to provide our executive students with knowledge of business practices and policies that are typically quite different from those in the US that our students are already familiar with.

This study tour will be to Marrakesh, Morocco, and Lisbon, Portugal. If conditions do not allow international travel in April 2027, we will plan for an alternative study tour to the US West Coast, including San Francisco and Silicon Valley.

Participating in this study tour will be students, faculty, and administrators from the Executive MBA (EMBA), Executive MBA in Healthcare Administration (EMBA HCA), and the Executive MS in Human Resource Management (EMS HRM) programs.

• EMBA is a 22-month program delivered on an accelerated basis for executive students with 5 or more years of business experience at the managerial, supervisory, professional, or executive levels. This MBA program includes courses in the traditional business disciplines as well as managerial strategy and leadership.

• EMBA HCA is a 22-month program delivered on an accelerated basis for executive students with 5 or more years of business experience at the managerial, supervisory, professional, or executive levels. It is a full MBA program whose courses cover the traditional business disciplines but these courses are focused on the healthcare industry. It also includes several very specialized courses that are unique to healthcare administration.

• EMS HRM is a 17-month program delivered on an accelerated basis for executive students with 3 or more years of business experience at the managerial, supervisory, professional, or executive levels. This program includes courses in the traditional areas of HR management, with special attention to legal, managerial, and psychological aspects of managing employees, as well as to new challenges facing HR managers.

The study tour is part of a course for credit focusing on business strategy and is meant to introduce students to globally diverse aspects of business management, finance, human resource management, and technology. This course is the capstone experience in this program. The international study tour achieves this goal in ways that are not possible in traditional classroom settings, and it supplements academic learning with cultural and experiential learning.

2.1.1 The firm selected by the Contractor is expected to offer a wide range of organizations to host site visits, including local start-ups as well as larger, more established firms with an international presence. These may include US firms that operate internationally, Moroccan, and Portuguese firms that operate in the US, as well as non-profits, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), and governmental agencies.

2.1.2 The Vendor will include in their submission company visits they are recommending. Once the RFQ Submission has been accepted, Baruch will review the list in detail and may request modifications or substitutions.

2.1.3 Because of the significant importance of a study tour in the executive degree programs, CUNY requires each Vendor to include in its RFQ Pricing Breakdown one alternative proposal, which will be a domestic trip to San Francisco/Silicon Valley. This alternative will be used if for any reason travel to Morocco and Portugal is not feasible in April 2027. The program requirements for this domestic alternative are the same as for the study tour to Morocco and Portugal.

2.1.4 Each Vendor must include the cost of optional insurance to cover the cost of quarantine for up to 10 days for all participants due to Covid-19 exposure. It shall be CUNY’s option whether to require the insurance, and this cost is included in the bid price with no guarantee that it will be required.

2.1.5 The study tour will take place from April 3-10, 2027.

2.1.6 Vendors must provide specific information about contingency planning in case of any disruptions, including, but not limited to, those related to COVID-19-related disruptions.

In this section CUNY outlines its minimum requirements regarding travel and accommodation logistics, the nature of the visits, and the program in general. These are given as starting points for Vendors to use in devising the program outlined in the RFQ Submission. It is CUNY’s understanding that during the term of the Contract, circumstances may require deviations from the specific outlines in these guidelines. CUNY expects to be informed of, and take an active part in, the development of the program so that it is aware of and is actively involved in any changes as they are being made.

4.3 Requirements for Specific Academic Degree Programs

Participating in this study tour will be executive students from the Executive MBA, Executive MBA in Healthcare Administration, and Executive MS in Human Resource Management programs. All students will attend most of the sessions in the program together.

We request that at least one session be devoted to HR issues of workforce development, talent, and/or the labor force. This session should be designed to be of interest and value to students in all three programs.

We also request that two healthcare-oriented sessions be included. One session would focus on healthcare delivery, including organizations such as hospitals, the health system, clinics or clinical networks, or public health organizations. The second session would focus on the broader healthcare ecosystem, including organizations such as pharma, healthcare innovation, or digital health. One of these two sessions can include students from all three programs, but the other should be specific to students in the EMBA HCA program.

4.4 Minimum Requirements for the Selection of Presenters at the Site Visits

4.4.1 The College requires the following of the presentations:

A presentation is an oral presentation by a C-Suite executive, professional, or academic with expertise on the subject being presented. The College usually has the first session on Monday morning at an organization or academic institution that can provide students with an introduction to the country being visited, with emphasis on its business and economic environment. The speaker will also describe the country’s natural resource base, history, and people to help our students understand ways in which business in the country of interest are different from what they know in the US.

In other company visits, the speaker, usually a CEO, CFO, COO, or other executive of the organization, tells students about the institution, its challenges, and opportunities. The presenter is prepared to answer questions from the students, who are charged with reading about the company in preparation for the discussion. In some cases, the College arranges in advance with the presenter to ask specific questions of the students. These can be in open discussions, or students can work in teams and present a team solution or response to the question posed.

At least one factory or other production facility tour should be included. Ideally, students will be asked to don hard hats, goggles, and/or hardened footwear. We require this because many of our executive students have only worked in office or retail environments in NYC and have not had the experience of visiting a factory or heavy industrial site, such as an auto manufacturer, petroleum refinery, a coal mine, or any other establishment where physical products are manufactured.

Since this experience is part of a course for academic credit, students prepare in advance for these discussions, knowing that their active, informed participation will be reflected in their course grades.

Students also have a project to complete after the visit. EMBA students, for example, are required to present a reflection of their experience in which they assess what they experienced relative to what they expected, and to share with their audience their key lessons from the experience. For these reasons, students participate actively in the sessions and aim to prepare well for these discussions.

4.4.2 Following are CUNY’s general guidelines for selection of the speakers:

a. The corporate, non-profit, and NGO presenters should be senior decision-makers with ranks such as CEO, CFO, President, Controller, Senior Vice President, Chief Medical Officer, Chief Operations Officer, Chair of the Board of Directors, Managing Director, and Chief Sustainability Officer. There should not be substitutions of any kind; in particular, lower-level personnel should not be substituted for senior-level decision-makers.

b. The government presenters should be officials who are responsible for healthcare issues, the general economic environment in the respective country, business regulation, and/or for oversight of the country’s foreign relationships. Some examples are officials from the country’s central bank, and from its various departments of commerce, agriculture, labor, interior, health and human services, transportation, and energy.

4.5 General Criteria for the Selection of Firms for the Site Visits

The students are to be introduced to a wide range of firms and organizations in the country being visited. These should include small, medium, and large firms. Although revenue is one criterion by which firms can be classified, more relevant to the program is that the selection will cover firms in different industries, stages of life, and circumstances, such as firms in well-established lines of business now facing new challenges, or younger start-up firms generating innovative solutions to current problems. They should also include social enterprises, start-ups, non-profits, NGOs, and governmental agencies and institutions.

For these reasons, the requirement is that the firms and organizations visited be wide-ranging and varied. Since the request is that both for-profit and non-profit organizations be included, there is not a requirement regarding sales revenue or any other quantitative measure of firm size.

4.5.1 Following are general criteria:

a. There should be a combination of foreign, national, and local companies with and without overseas investments. Governmental agencies, NGOs, and non-profit institutions should be included.

b. The firms will reflect the industrial structure of Morocco and Portugal and the structure of foreign investment in it.

c. The mix of firms should include strong representation of the dominant industries of Morocco and Portugal, or San Francisco / Silicon Valley if needed.

d. The firms should be related to areas of interest for our students.

Morocco: The program should highlight its rich cultural heritage, its progress as an emerging market with a growing infrastructure, and its strategic location globally. Industries and institutions of special interest in Morocco include:

Tourism Telecommunication Energy Shipping and logistics Real estate and property development

Portugal: Lisbon is renowned for its innovation, startups, technological advancements, and creative tech studios. The program should highlight industries and institutions of special interest such as:

Technology and innovation Agriculture Manufacturing Information and Communications Technology (ICT)

Both state-owned and private firms should be included. This list is not exhaustive but a sample of the types of industries and institutions to be included. Companies will vary depending on country and city.

4.6 Additional Required Program Features

4.6.1 There should be an event or session in which the executive students have a consulting opportunity with executives from a local firm and/or entrepreneurs.

4.6.2 In addition to this programming, the College requires the Contractor to provide a cultural orientation at each location conducted by a local guide. We note that cultural activities are critical in enhancing students’ understanding of the country and its people in ways that relate to its business environment.

4.7 Conformance with State and CUNY Regulations

This RFQ is conducted in compliance with all requirements of applicable New York State laws and statutes. It is intentionally structured with broad guidelines and few mandated components to encourage competition.
