The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade (MFAT), is inviting the proposals from suitably qualified and experienced consultants to undertake the design of a digital tourism marketing change programme.

The programme will be centrally managed by the South Pacific Tourism Organisation (SPTO) and delivered across multiple SPTO member countries.

There are two stages to this programme.
 Stage One – Review and Recommendations
 Stage Two - Implementation

The supplier selected via this RFP will be expected to develop a plan around which a Business Case can be developed for investment in improving the capacity and capability of the South Pacific Tourism Organisation (SPTO) to support the digital marketing of member countries, as tourism destinations. (Stage-One).

If the Business Case is successful and the implementation of the recommendations developed during Stage One is approved then negotiations will be entered into with the respondent selected to deliver Stage One, to support the Stage Two Implementation.

SPTO will oversee Stage Two. Contracts resulting from Stage One recommendations will be between the SPTO and the various suppliers nominated or selected to deliver the streams of work identified in the Stage One review recommendations.
