PROFESSIONAL By:_______________________________ Date:_____________________________ CITY OF FORT COLLINS By:_________________________________ Project Manager Date: ______________________________ By: _______________________________ Gerry Paul Purchasing Director (over $60,000.00) Date: ____________________________ DocuSign Envelope ID: DF38D5F2-4040-4A38-86C4-BF039380E920 Professional Services Agreement – Work Order Type 8425 Road to 2020 Climate Action Plan Communications & Engagement Services Page 8 of 16 EXHIBIT B SCOPE OF SERVICES INTRODUCTION The City of Fort Collins needs a comprehensive, multi-faceted community engagement and communications plan for its Road to 2020, which is the implementation of the City’s Climate Action Plan (CAP) Framework adopted by City Council in 2015. The focus of this RFP is two-fold: 1. The development of an overarching strategic plan around community engagement. 2. Execution of some specific actions and messaging that is aligned with the strategic plan of this RFP. These efforts will continue in tandem with two existing City efforts: 1. Staff will continue to pursue regular public engagement opportunities working with such groups as CSU’s Center for Public Deliberation, and 2. Staff is in the process of branding the Road to 2020. While the focus of this RFP will be on 2020, the Road to 2020 is just the first step in the City’s long-term plans to reduce its carbon emissions. The goals adopted by Council in 2015:  20 percent below 2005 levels by 2020  80 percent by 2030  Carbon neutral by 2050 Phase I of the CAP Engagement Plan included identifying key audiences, pilot testing messaging on a new web interface and beginning communication on CAP implementation. This RFP will address Phase II. The City is moving from planning – the CAP – to branding actions people can take to help the community achieve its 2020 goals – known as the “Road to 2020.” Road to 2020 is bridging language: The City has embarked on a branding effort to identify actions associated with the Road to 2020 and requires the assistance of a professional communications/community engagement firm to assist with developing a strategic plan that addresses specific audiences and tactics as the brand is being developed. Austin, Texas has identified a six-stage framework of inform, report, educate, empower, inspire and engage to illustrate how they communicate about their Climate Action Plan. Using the Austin framework as a basis, the selected firm will develop a 2-year strategic plan that inventories current messaging and engagement strategies, assesses gaps in these strategies, and identifies the critical strategies to fill these gaps to ensure increased community engagement and action on the Road to 2020. The execution of this plan will be on the actions that people can take and how those actions fit into their lifestyles, not their belief in the Climate Action Plan or the Road to 2020. In addition to the overall plan, the City will work with Professional to develop key messages and outreach campaigns to implement the plan over the 2-year timeframe. Evaluation of success will occur after each campaign and lessons learned will be incorporated into the overall strategy moving forward. In the Austin model, this plan would focus specifically on “Empower,” “Inspire” and “Engage.” DocuSign Envelope ID: DF38D5F2-4040-4A38-86C4-BF039380E920 Professional Services Agreement – Work Order Type 8425 Road to 2020 Climate Action Plan Communications & Engagement Services Page 9 of 16 The ideal team is composed of experts in sustainability communication and engagement, marketing and strategic planning. Experience in Colorado and/or the West is highly desired. All communications will be developed in tandem with the City’s Communications and Public Involvement Office (CPIO) and Utilities Community Engagement, which are the two entities managing Road to 2020 Messaging and Engagement Team. The Messaging and Engagement Team is one of the 10 CAP Strategic Initiative Teams – a mix of 70 City staff and 20 citizen volunteers - responsible for CAP strategy implementation. SCOPE OF WORK The key characteristics of this Scope of Work are: 1. Developing a strategic plan 2. Executing the plan with messaging and communications tactics 3. Working with the City on existing and potential engagement opportunities. 1. Strategic Plan Development will include: o Inventory and Assessment/Research  Research into successful campaigns in other communities (taking existing work already collected by Environmental Services staff and the City Manager graduate intern). Research should focus on successful climate action campaigns as well as other successful Colorado (or Mountain region) campaigns or campaigns in communities that are more like Fort Collins in size and values such as health and wellness campaigns.  Among the communities that have been discussed: Austin plan/Let’s Talk Climate.org/Park City’s website.  Inventory of existing City engagement efforts around the Road to 2020 and the Climate Action Plan. o Identification of key audiences. The Professional will provide direction on the following audiences identified by the City:  Further breakdown and understanding of Utilities Customer Segmentation study  Municipal organization employees  Renters vs. owners (e.g., As a homeowner, I’m more likely to be interested in on-bill financing for home improvement as opposed to the renter who doesn’t have that incentive).  Small businesses  Underserved populations (in tandem with CSU student study on underserved populations) Key outcomes of the strategic plan:  An emphasis on meeting 2020 goals by identifying multiple strategies at different levels to involve the community (“meeting individuals where they are at”).  A listing of the highest impact strategies DocuSign Envelope ID: DF38D5F2-4040-4A38-86C4-BF039380E920 Professional Services Agreement – Work Order Type 8425 Road to 2020 Climate Action Plan Communications & Engagement Services Page 10 of 16  An execution plan that outlines key roles and responsibilities and timelines  Prioritization of strategies – low, medium, high, etc. 2. A communications plan that executes specific actions identified in the Strategic Plan: This communications and engagement work will include, although is not limited to: o Direct messaging assistance  Any communications and engagement strategy must address:  Why do we need people to act?  What is it we want them to do?  Where do we need to be in the community with what message?  Who needs to hear from us?  What benefits can/should we articulate to different audiences?  What are the actions needed to meet the goals?  How will we measure how and whether individuals have helped achieve these community goals?  When do we need people to act? o Communications toolkit  Create a storytelling campaigns and toolbox – visuals, newsletters, etc. – that will communicate to a broad audience using specific examples of existing strategies and offering specific actions (e.g., consumer product rebates (Ex: “ENERGY STAR dishwasher rebates = something you are already doing to help accomplish climate action goals. Here’s what else you can do.”)  Develop a clear path to connecting residents to their individual interests. (“What is your primary interest for participating in City programs?”)  Identification of useful marketing tools and materials that could include:  Social media strategy  Website (within scope of existing site(s))  Carbon calculator  Bus benches/shelter ads and bus benches  Videos that tell community stories (in tandem with ClimateWise)  Social networks  E-newsletters  Fact sheets: o For an external audience: Articulate the implementation strategies and individual roles residents and businesses can play.

The plan should result in individuals and business leaders seeing themselves in the Road to 2020 and giving people choices about actions.  Any messaging and engagement plan should not directly advocate for the Plan or a specific individual action.  Communications and engagement will focus on BENEFITS and ACTION relationships and how City programs support these actions – empowering, inspiring and engaging people to take actions that align with their personal values and interests.  Furthermore, this focus should highlight that these actions are relatively easy and will get the community to its 2020 goals or make life better for them as the goals align to their personal values or interests. DELIVERABLES Based on the needs identified above, the following will be considered key deliverables:  A strategic document that takes an inventory and assesses the City’s current marketing, communications, and engagement efforts around the Road to 2020;  Identification of the critical strategies needed to fill the gaps identified in the inventory and assessment;  Translation of these critical strategies into a two-year communications plan for community engagement that includes the following: o A detailed execution plan (that includes social media and other methods to reach multiple audiences) o Key messaging by a minimum of 4 audiences that includes pilot testing with municipal employees and engaged citizens (boards and commissions, etc). o A series of campaigns, i.e., quarterly, that can be targeted to different audiences to include messaging and collateral marketing materials o Assistance with specific metrics – in tandem with the CAP Performance Measurement team – that will help residents and the business community understand how they fit into the CAP and its implementation DocuSign Envelope ID: DF38D5F2-4040-4A38-86C4-BF039380E920 Professional Services Agreement – Work Order Type 8425 Road to 2020 Climate Action Plan Communications & Engagement Services Page 12 of 16  Identification of community engagement strategies with City staff and partners to allow community deeper dive into specific strategies (transportation, energy, Ritter event in August 2016, etc.) o Giving residents/businesses/other audiences additional opportunities for input. o Alignment with the City’s work with the CSU Department of Political Science and the Center for Public Deliberation. o Lead coordination of Innovation Summit to be held by the end of the first quarter of 2017. TIMELINE A draft Strategic Plan will be completed by the end of the first quarter of 2017 followed by implementation of the plan beginning in the second quarter of 2017. MECHANISM The City has chosen to use our Professional Services Work Order (PSWO) Agreement as the mechanism to pre-approve, release and fund the various work elements and/or projects (i.e. Work Orders) involving Communications and Engagement Services that the Professional will undertake on behalf of the City in support of the Climate Action Plan and/or any other initiatives selected by the City that fit the Professional’s expertise and skill set.
