Single Source with The Crawford Group, dba Crawford Entertainment

The Florida Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) is seeking to contract with The Crawford Group, dba Crawford Entertainment, for year-round syndication services of Flip My Florida Yard (FMFY) Seasons 1-3 to television networks throughout Florida. The goal is to increase public education and encourage positive behavior change relating to Florida-Friendly Landscaping and nonpoint source pollution. The DEP will select 26 episodes from the three seasons for syndication, which will air consistently for 52 weeks across major Florida broadcast markets, including NBC, CBS, ABC, and FOX, on Saturdays and Sundays. The syndication period is expected to run from August 2024 to August 2025. This is a fixed-price contract funded by a federal 319(h) grant, with an estimated value of $156,000, which includes syndication services, episode editing, distribution, and viewership data reporting.

The Crawford Group is the sole source for this contract, as they own the rights to the FMFY brand, episodes, and associated assets. The DEP is posting this opportunity to allow other vendors to provide information about their ability to supply the requested services, and if no other qualified vendors are identified, the DEP will proceed with the single-source contract. There are no set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond, and no incumbent vendors or current contractors are listed. The contract has a fixed budget range of $156,000.
