Description

Georgia Southern University is seeking a qualified audiovisual (AV) provider to supply complete audio, video, lighting, rigging, and staffing services for its commencement ceremonies and other special events at multiple venues (Paulson Stadium, Jack and Ruth Ann Hill Convocation Center, and the Savannah Enmarket Arena). The contract is a one‑year base term with up to four optional one‑year renewals, and the supplier must deliver all equipment, personnel, safety documentation, and contingency plans required for high‑profile indoor and outdoor events. The award will be made after evaluating technical capability, past experience, compliance with Georgia’s procurement statutes, and cost proposals. • Provide full AV production—including sound coverage, video capture/streaming, lighting, and rigging—for up to four major commencement events per year. • Supply qualified technicians, engineers, and labor for set‑up, operation, and tear‑down, plus detailed safety calculations (counterweights, wind‑load, rigging plots). • Meet extensive compliance requirements: E‑Verify registration, background checks, insurance, tax compliance, and registration in Team Georgia Marketplace™ and USG SHARE.

Budget estimate

$150,000 – $500,000

Based on typical university commencement AV contracts, the budget can range from a low‑six‑figure amount for basic equipment and staffing to a high‑six‑figure sum when multiple venues, extensive rigging, lighting, and live‑streaming services are required. Assuming 4–5 major ceremonies per year, equipment rentals, labor, insurance, and contingency planning, a reasonable estimate is $150,000–$500,000 annually. Factors influencing the final amount include the scope of video‑streaming, the complexity of rigging at outdoor stadiums, and any optional services the vendor proposes.
