R -- OPERATION AND MANAGEMENT OF USA NATIONAL PAVILION AT THE 1997 PARIS AIR SHOW SOL 52-SATA-5-00115 POC Michael Sade The Department of Commerce has a requirement for the operation and management of the USA National Pavilion at the 1997 Paris Air Show. The requirment will include, in general, comprehensive recruitment, promotion, operation and management. The contractor would have substantial discretion in the organization of the Pavilion, and would be compensated from the fees of recruited exhibitors. Commerce has developed a baseline package of private-sector services that it believes should be included in such a requirement. These were advertised and circulated as part of the Request for Information announced in the Commerce Business Daily on November 4, 1994, Issue Number PSA-1216. In addition, the Department of Commerce encourages any vendor interested in competing for this requirement to visit the 1995 Paris Air Show to be held June 10, 1995 through June 18, 1995. The Department will be issuing the Request for Proposal prior to the 1995 Air Show with proposals due following the show. Vendors that responded to the earlier Request for Information will automatically receive a copy of the solicitation document. All other responsible vendors should request a copy of the solicitation from the address above or by faxing a request at (202) 482-0546. Telephone requests will not be honored. This procurement will be conducted under full and open competition procedures.(0110)
