As part of this grant funded project, a pedestrian safety educational outreach campaign targeting children and senior citizens will be conducted. A marketing consultant is needed to oversee this effort. A Request for Proposals (RFP) for marketing services was mailed out on December 9, 2004 to five qualified consulting firms. Two more consultants picked up copies of the RFP from City Hall. The proposals were due on January 4, 2005. However, the due date was extended to February 8, 2005 since no consultant submitted a proposal by January 4, 2005. One of the firms was based in Santa Ana. Only one of the seven consultants submitted a proposal. The proposal was reviewed by a three-member committee comprised of Public Works Agency staff. The rating was based on experience, qualifications, project understanding, scheduling, past performance, and the overall proposal. Once rated, the sealed bid of the firm was opened. 25D-1 Agreement Santa Ana April 18, Page 2 for Marketing Services For Interagency Pedestrian Safety Program 2005 The proposal score and total cost are: 1.
