Savannah Convention Center 360-Degree Virtual Tour Services

The Georgia World Congress Center Authority, on behalf of the Savannah Convention Center, is requesting proposals for the design, development, and implementation of a fully interactive 360-degree virtual tour platform, with proposals due August 31, 2026, at 1:00 PM. A communication restriction is in effect: interested firms may not contact Authority staff or consultants except through submission of questions as instructed in the RFP or during the optional offerors conference; finalists and apparent awardees are also restricted from making public statements about their selection or award.

The scope encompasses high-resolution 360-degree imagery capture of the 330,000-square-foot facility (exhibit halls, meeting rooms, ballrooms, and outdoor spaces); development of an interactive virtual environment with navigation hotspots, multimedia overlays, and guided tour pathways; floor plan integration with room configuration toggles; ADA accessibility; web-based and mobile-compatible platforms; cloud-based hosting; ongoing technical support; user analytics dashboards; and CRM and branding integration. The estimated project completion timeline is 90 to 180 days from notice to proceed.

Evaluation is weighted 60 percent on technical merit—demonstrated experience with 360-degree virtual tour services, key personnel qualifications, firm stability, financial strength, references, and fit to Authority objectives—and 40 percent on cost. Proposers must provide itemized pricing for lump sum full project delivery, photography and capture services, platform development, annual hosting costs, and hourly rates for additional services. The Authority encourages participation from small businesses, minority-owned businesses, and female-owned businesses and will grant Georgia residents reciprocal preference where applicable.

Required insurance includes contractor's protective liability ($1 million per accident) and public liability ($1 million per person, $3 million per accident). Proposers must submit a notarized Statement of Proposer's Qualifications and proof of compliance with Georgia workmen's compensation laws. An optional offerors conference is scheduled for August 13, 2026, at 2:00 PM via Microsoft Teams. Written questions are due August 18, 2026, at 10:00 AM, with answers posted August 20. The Authority reserves the right to make a single award or split awards among multiple proposers.
