GENERAL INFORMATION  \nA.  Purpose of this Request for Proposal (RFP)  \nThe Rector and Visitors of the University of Virginia (the “University”) seeks proposals from qualified firms to provide Media Buying and Public Relations Services (“Services”) for the University on an as-need-basis.  \nThis RFP is part ofa competitive procurement process which helps to serve the University's best interests. It also provides firms with a fair opportunity for their services to be considered. The process of competitive negotiation being used in this case should not be confused with the different process of competitive sealed bidding. The latter process is usually used where the goods or services being procured can be described precisely and price is generally the determinative factor. With competitive negotiation, however, price is not required to be the determinative factor, although it may be, and the University has the flexibility it needs to negotiate with firms to arrive at a mutually agreeable relationship.  \nFor ease of reference, each firm or individual receiving this RFP is referred to as a “firm”and the firm(s) or individual selected to provide services for the University is referred to as the “Selected Firm”. This RFP states the instructions for submitting proposals and the procedure and criteria by which a firm may be selected.  \nIt is the University’s intent to select multiple firms for award and establish those firms as contract vendors who are pre-qualified to provide Services to the University on an asneed-basis. Please note that becoming a contract vendor / Selected Firm does not guarantee any Services will be requested by the University during the agreement period.  \nIn addition, the Selected Firms may be requested to provide Services to entities outside of the University (other colleges, state agencies, etc.) without going through another RFP process due to cooperative language contained in this RFP (See Attachment 3,  \nAgreement Attachment A, Provision U, Use of Agreement by Third Parties) .  \nB.  RFP Schedule and Information:  \n1. Preproposal Questions  \nIf the firm has any questions about this RFP prior to the proposal due date (see below) the questions must be received by January 12, 2017 to ensure the University has adequate time to respond. Email your questions to  \n[warlick@virginia.edu](warlick@virginia.edu)  \n2. Proposal Due Date: Tuesday, January 24, 2017 by 5:00 p.m. EDT.
