Question and Answers

1. Pg. 8 – 3.1.2 What is the difference between “one (1) original, (with original signature)...” and

“one (1) copy of the Technical Proposal…” Answer: Please submit a hard copy of your proposal

with wet signature and a digital pdf version on a usb drive, labeled “Technical Proposal”

2. Pg. 45 – 6.5 :: C.2 Which specific unique challenges are being referred to here? Answer:

The ETSU Mini Dome is a distinctive venue whose size, architectural design, and

multi-use functionality present unique challenges for hosting a Commencement

Ceremony. The proposer should recognize these characteristics and develop plans

that specifically address the Dome’s acoustics, visual environment, and layout to

ensure a dignified, engaging, and seamless ceremony experience for graduates,

guests, and faculty.

3. Pg. 45 – 6.5 :: C.9 What constitutes an emergency in this case? Answer:

RFP applicants should describe how they will plan for and respond to potential

operational and technical contingencies, including but not limited to equipment

malfunctions, power disruptions, or audio/visual failures. Applicants should outline

the availability of backup equipment, on-site technical support, and procedures to

quickly resolve issues with minimal disruption to the event. Applicants should also

address weather- and attendance of staff-related contingencies, including plans.

Responses should demonstrate flexibility, preparedness, and coordination

strategies to ensure the event proceeds safely and successfully under varying

conditions.
