- Description
- THIS IS A REQUEST FOR INFORMATION (RFI) ONLY. This RFI is issued solely for information and planning purposes. It does not constitute a Request for Proposal (RFP) or a promise to issue an RFP in the future. This RFI does not commit the U.S. Government to contract for any supply or service whatsoever. The Broadcasting Board of Governors (BBG) is not at this time seeking proposals and will not accept unsolicited proposals. All, who respond to this RFI, are advised that the U.S. Government will not pay for any information or administrative costs incurred in response to this RFI. All costs associated with responding to this RFI will be solely at the Interested Party's expense. Not responding to this RFI does not preclude participation in any future RFP if any is released. BBG is conducting market research in anticipation of a future requirement. BBG is seeking to ascertain if there are firms available who are capable of providing television and radio broadcast and production systems.
