Organization overview and procurement intelligence available on paid plans.
An association seeks a vendor to lead a comprehensive rebranding initiative aligned with its 2030 Strategic Plan. The project will entail a thorough review of the existing brand and graphic elements, including an evaluation of the current organizational name to ensure it reflects inclusivity beyond the United States and aligns with peer associations globally.
The selected vendor will conduct audience research through surveys, interviews, focus groups, and social media analytics to inform the rebranding process. Deliverables will include the development of a new or refreshed visual identity, logo design, a global brand style guide, branded templates, marketing and advertising assets, and both digital and print collateral.
Prospective vendors should submit any questions regarding the RFP by April 13, 2026.
