CTAI has released a Notice of RFP for qualified marketing and communications firms or consultants who are interested in supporting CTAI's Veteran's One Call/One Click outreach and education efforts. This Request for Proposal (RFP ID# VTCLI2-RESEARCH2013) solicits fixed price proposals from qualified individuals or organizations to develop and implement an education and outreach program that will promote the newly developed statewide transportation resource directory, found on i-way.org, or directly through "findmyidahoride.org" (or .com) so that Veterans, their families, and all Idahoans may more easily identify available transportation options in their area that will get them from point A to point B.  

CTAI has been awarded a grant through the Federal Transit Administration and will have funds available to begin the project immediately. In addition, CTAI will work with any vendor wishing to provide an inkind donation of time for this project in exchange for being listed as a partner during media outreach. The amount budgeted for design, development, and printing of outreach materials and collateral is $32,500.
