FAQ:
If a social media campaign where to be used for public outreach:
Q: Would the selected consultant structure the outreach out of an existing INCOG-owned page or a new page?
A:
If each municipality or organization would like to create a social media outreach, it would be on their individual social media accounts and websites.
Q:
Would any ad budget be covered by the consultant or is there a budget for such campaigns?
A:
Once we have a logo and design guidelines manual, it would be up to each municipality or organization to budget for social media.
Q:
Are there any internal surveying systems that INCOG prefers or would we need to deploy a new system?
A:
INCOG currently does not have an internal surveying system.
Q: How would sponsors come into play for the trail system?
A:
It would be up to an individual, foundation or business if they would like to fund implementation of signage. Usually the donating entity reaches out to the municipality or organization.
Q:
Is this something that needs to be addressed in the design strategy, or will it need to be defined by the steering committee?
A:
Please refer to Task 2 on page 4 of the RFP.
Q: From a design standpoint, what are the physical constraints of the signage? Are there any major restraints or concerns that would affect the design of the sign?
A:
There are no physical constraints that INCOG is aware of. This would be a decision on a municipality or organizational level.
Tulsa C.A.N. Plan
INCOG Area Agency on Aging was one out of ten agencies selected in August 2018 to receive the National Aging and Disability Transportation Center “Getting Ready to Innovate Grant”. The Tulsa C.A.N. (Creating Access to Nutrition) Plan identified solutions to serve and connect older adults and people with disabilities living in food deserts in Tulsa to healthy food sources, building new partnerships and community involvement, and finding solutions that improve accessibility to be replicated in other food desert areas within the region.
