DLANC Arts Committee RFP for Gallery Row Promotion: Web and Print materials

Downtown Los Angeles Neighborhood Council (DLANC) Arts Committee

Gallery Row Promotion

Request for Proposals

This Request for Proposals is intended to select vendors who will create an enhanced version of the existing Gallery Row website, develop a new printed brochure and map, and secure promotional, hosting and web domain services. The design work will be coordinated with the CRA Gallery Row signage program usage guidelines, which were installed in the Fall of 2009 along Main and Spring Streets.

Although using Gallery Row as a focal point, this program will promote all of the cultural resources of all of downtown Los Angeles, including art, culture, fashion, restaurants, retail and services, and any other appropriate content.

The website and print materials, once designed and launched, will be self-sustaining and are intended to be managed and updated by Gallery Row volunteers Nic Cha Kim and Bert Green. All subsequent costs will be paid for by sponsorships or donations, as DLANC’s involvement is only as an incubator.

There are 3 parts to this RFP (hosting and domain services are not included in the public RFP as their costs have been researched and appropriate vendors have been selected).

1) Website design and production

2) Print Design

3) Printing

In each section, CLIENT will be defined as “Downtown Los Angeles Neighborhood Council Arts Committee.” CONSULTANT will be defined as the selected applicant for each section.

All payments are made by submitting a check request to the DLANC board which can take up to 30 days, so schedules must be accommodated around this.

Any and all interested applicants must possess a City of Los Angeles business license (form 2000).

Applicants may apply for any one portion of the scope of work, or any combination of all three.

Please provide the following:

Full name of business, address, all contact information.

A resume and portfolio of past projects (web links are acceptable).

A bid for the cost of services, in total, with any appropriate breakdowns if desired.

All applicants may submit bids to the DLANC Arts Committee chair at arts@dlanc.com.
