Organization overview and procurement intelligence available on paid plans.
A Michigan-based organization seeks a vendor to provide strategic planning and market analysis services. The selected consultant will develop a data-driven, community-informed strategic framework that clarifies organizational mission and vision, defines market positioning, and ensures financial responsibility. The scope includes aligning programming with community needs, establishing measurable performance indicators, recommending a sustainable organizational structure, and outlining a phased implementation roadmap for the next 3–5 years.
The consultant will also be responsible for designing a comprehensive programming strategy. This includes defining the distinction between 'anchor' events and mission-driven programming, balancing earned and contributed revenue, and aligning programming with current market demand. The approach should address both revenue and non-revenue generating events to achieve organizational balance.
