Description

The University of Massachusetts seeks a qualified vendor to provide a comprehensive, turnkey solution for its Summer Acoustic Music Week (SAMW) program. The awardee will lease or rent a suitable property or building that can accommodate two separate, week‑long music camps (each 6 nights), host up to 130 participants per session, and deliver all associated services including lodging, meals, conference spaces, performance venues, recreation, medical support, security, and telecommunications. The contract is a fixed‑price, five‑year agreement with annual delivery of the two sessions.

Budget estimate

$10,000,000 – $25,000,000

No specific dollar amount is disclosed in the solicitation. Based on the scope—providing lodging for ~130 people, three daily meals, multiple specialized rooms, security, medical staff, and recreation for two 6‑night sessions each year—a comparable university‑scale event venue typically costs between $2 million and $5 million per year. Over the 5‑year term, the total contract value would likely fall in the $10 million to $25 million range, depending on the vendor’s cost structure, staffing levels, and any contingency or inflation provisions.
