Statewide Advertising Services - Qualified Vendor List (QVL)

Missouri is establishing a Statewide Advertising Services Qualified Vendor List on behalf of various state agencies, with responses due October 14, 2026. This is a QVL vehicle, not a project-specific procurement; selected vendors will be available for state agencies to issue task orders without individual competitive solicitations for each engagement.

The scope encompasses advertising services across multiple media channels and formats to support state agency marketing and promotional needs. Specific project requirements, deliverables, timelines, and budgets are defined through individual task orders issued by agencies to QVL vendors using a standardized Statement of Work template.

Vendors selected for the QVL must comply with federal funding requirements when performing work supported by federal dollars, including Buy American Act provisions, Davis-Bacon Act prevailing-wage obligations, domestic-content restrictions, and federal procurement standards. Vendors must maintain documentation of federal compliance and provide certifications as required.

Quarterly reporting obligations apply: vendors must submit the Missouri Statewide Contract Quarterly Usage Report to ereports@oa.mo.gov no later than the 15th calendar day of the month following each reporting quarter (or the next business day if the 15th falls on a non-business day), detailing all purchases by customer entity type (state agency, political subdivision, university, or out-of-state entity), product or service description, quantity, unit price, and extended price. Reports must be submitted even if no purchases occurred during the quarter. Vendors are also subject to quarterly administrative-fee reporting and must track and report all purchases, including those made via procurement card.

Contract term and renewal options are contingent upon individual agency task orders. No incumbent vendor, contract value estimate, or evaluation criteria are specified at the QVL level.
