About this opportunity

Written by GovTribe AI ·

The Colorado Department of Natural Resources, on behalf of the Colorado Water Conservation Board, is soliciting proposals under RFP PDAA 2027_0003 for a two-year statewide messaging campaign for the Colorado Water Plan, with proposals due November 23, 2026 at 10:00 a.m. MST. The RFP establishes no set-aside. It encourages participation by minority-owned and women-owned businesses and grants preferences to Service Disabled Veteran Owned Small Businesses certified by the U.S. Small Business Administration's Center for Veteran Enterprise, which receive a 5% bid preference, and to resident bidders, who receive the preference their home state grants nonresidents. Amendment #01 is the current version. It adds submission through the Colorado Vendor Self Service system or Google Forms.

The scope covers paid, earned, social, digital, and engagement strategies to amplify the CWCB's mission, along with creative programs, cost-effective solutions, and strategic communications support. Proposals must include detailed budgets broken down by project phase, and payment is based on the percentage of completed phases as invoiced and approved by the Project Manager. Work must be completed within Colorado unless the contractor gives the State written notice within 20 days of deciding to perform services outside Colorado and/or the United States, as required by Section 2.6. Required insurance includes workers' compensation, general liability of $1 million per occurrence, automobile liability, protected information liability, professional liability, and crime coverage, with the State named as an additional insured. All work products and deliverables become the sole property of the State of Colorado.

The total budget is not to exceed $2 million over the two-year contract term, funded through the CWCB Projects Bill (SB 24-1435 and HB 26-1338), with additional funding contingent on approval by the CWCB Board and the Colorado Legislature. Public proposal opening follows on November 23, 2026 at 12:00 p.m. MST. Evaluation runs November 24 through December 7, 2026, interviews are scheduled for December 9–11, 2026, and award notification is expected December 15, 2026. The project start date is January 19, 2027, and performance must be complete by January 31, 2029.
