1.2 STATEMENT OF WORK

IRM’s Information Management Officers Workshop

Proposed Workshop Dates: September 21 – 24, 2015 (Check-in September 20, 2015 and Check-out September 25, 2015)

Proposed Workshop Site: Fort Lauderdale, Florida

C. 1. Introduction

The Department of State (DoS) and the Information Resource Management Bureau (IRM), located at 2201 C Street, N. W., RM 6311, Washington, DC 20520 are seeking to award a firm fixed contract for the purpose of providing the location and services for the yearly workshop.

The Information Resource Management Bureau (IRM) holds one workshop a year for Information Management Officers (IMO) at Posts abroad. The purpose of the workshops is to provide training and inform managers at posts of the latest information on programs directly from the executives in Washington. It serves as a networking opportunity as well as a means of communication between ex-ecutives and program directors and those people in the field managing their embassy’s programs. The upcoming fall workshop will be for all regions.

C. 2. Objective

The objective of the statement of work is to negotiate at a fair price based on the current per diem rate following government policies with a facility, in which this workshop can be held; also to obtain a hotel with conference facilities and workshop facilities to hold up to 200 participants for a 4-day period. The facility should be located within 20-50 minutes drive time from an international airport and the availability of reasonable shuttle transportation is important. The venue should be within walking distance of restaurants, shops, services and have access to local public transit near the selected hotel in Fort Lauderdale. The hotel facilities needed are one main conference hall (approx. 3,400 sq. ft.), one room for a control center/office (450 sq. ft.), and one room to hold 50 people for workshop sessions during the week (approx. 1,000 sq. ft.). Each meeting room (except for the control room) should have projectors, large screens and microphones.

C.3. Support Requirements

1. The main meeting room for up to 200 attendees set up classroom style with a center aisle. The room must be available Sunday (set

up) through Thursday evening (break down). The main conference room should have a podium to the left of the screens, one Internet connection, two large projector screens and a public address system with wireless microphones. Water should be available for the speaker at the podium.

2. Connectivity and equipment rental to conduct interactive web conferencing or video teleconferencing.

3. Additional rooms should include:

One room for a control room set up, available from Monday morning before the workshop begins to Thursday evening, the week of the workshop. This room should contain a table and chairs for a two-person desk setup, and a phone that dials directly to the hotel op-erator. Internet connectivity should also be available in this room. A Hotel Business Center should be available for making copies or printing, if necessary.

One additional room for workshop sessions should be set for 50 people, classroom style. This will be used from Monday to Thursday. A different set up may be necessary for Thursday only.

*4. Lodging—A block of up to 200 sleeping rooms at the current prevailing Federal government per diem rate, for approximately 200 participants from Sunday, September 20 to Friday, September 25. The rooms will be provided at the per diem rate and no additional state and local taxes, fees and assessments are applicable. Per diem rates will be offered, based on availability, to our attendees (3) days before and (3) days after these dates. A hyperlink should be provided for online registration for the IRM attendees to reserve rooms. Individual participants will be on per diem and will make their own reservations and pay for their rooms individually. A hold for 200 rooms (first come first acquired) at Federal per diem rates is required.

5. Morning coffee service with light refreshments and afternoon beverage service with light refreshments are requested for each day.

C.4. Personnel Requirements

The hotel should have a contact person to discuss details of room setup, IT requirements, and the handling of any issues that may arise in assuring a successful workshop attendance such as handicap equipment or logistics. Technicians on the hotel staff should include A/V support and computer/internet set up support.

Performance Requirements

The final statement of charges for the U.S. Department of State should be within 2 weeks of the workshop’s conclusion and any dis-crepancies should be resolved within 48 hours. Payment shall then be made within 30 days, as is government policy. There will be no advance deposit made.

Any hotel deadlines and/or restrictions should be clearly stated in writing. The cancellation requirements should be mutually agree-able to each party.

Note: The hotel should understand that the invoice/statement of charges should not include any personal expenses for individual at-tendees. The Federal Government does not purchase alcoholic beverages or entertainment and these items should not be placed on the master statement. Please consult with the workshop coordinator if there are any questions on this matter. It is requested that the room rate be extended to those participants that need to arrive before Sunday or depart after Friday. These days are also paid for by the indi-viduals.

The Program Office and/or Task Manager should be kept appraised of progress in all steps along the process.

The Program Office shall review proposals for best value as well as suitability of facilities. The Program Office and/or Task Manager will require inspection of all bidders’ facilities and be involved in the final decision making of this award to make sure all IRM tech-nical requirements are met and the facility provides safe and secure workshop accommodations.

Immediate notification of changes in enrollment or schedule will be communicated to the Hotel Point of Contact. Audio Visual ser-vices shall include one laptop computer for general session meeting room, all-day wireless internet access in general session meeting room, on-site A/V technician; and any other additional equipment required to operate PowerPoint, microphones, and computers.

Notification of any changes in key personnel should be made within 3 business days and is required.

Managers that will be on duty during the workshop should be included in the meeting and contact numbers should be provided to the Workshop Coordinator.

The workshop team will arrive on Sunday afternoon before the workshop begins. The workshop team will be setting up in the confer-ence room and control room, so classroom seating should be in place prior to their arrival. Sunday will be testing connections and final preparations.
