The New Hampshire Department of Justice, Office of Victim and Witness Assistance, is soliciting proposals for a fixed-price contract to provide comprehensive event services for the 2027 Partnering for a Future Without Violence conference. The required services include facility meeting space, overnight lodging, parking accommodations, and audio-visual equipment and support. The event must take place on two consecutive weekdays during one of three windows in September 2027: September 8-10, September 13-17, or September 20-24. All provided facilities and lodgings must be ADA compliant, and the venue must be located within twenty miles of a specified area. The award will be determined through a competitive scoring process based on best value and cost reasonableness rather than a low-bid selection. Evaluation criteria include venue quality (35 points), price (25 points), food and beverage (20 points), location (15 points), and experience and resources (5 points), with a minimum score of 70 required for eligibility. Final approval is subject to the Attorney General and the Governor and Executive Council. Proposals must be submitted via email to Ashley de Wet by November 20, 2026, at 4:00 PM. Selected vendors must register as state vendors and provide certificates of insurance, good standing, and authority. The agency is tax-exempt, and payment will be issued within thirty days following the event and satisfactory acceptance of services. The contractor is responsible for all room setup, transitions, and cleanup, and must adhere to strict non-discrimination and workplace civility standards. Specific pricing caps are established for breakfast and mid-afternoon breaks, which are not to exceed 10 dollars per person.
