Type and Scope of services to be performed:
Rocky Mountain Public Media (RMPM), formally known as Rocky Mountain Public Broadcasting Network, is developing a new media center (total about 60,000 sq ft). This facility will replace its existing office and production facility located in Denver at 1089 Bannock. The new media center will be a state of the art production and office facility, housing both RPMP and other media and community partners. The facility will also include some limited office space where private and nonprofit enterprises may locate to increase collaboration and opportunities, and also include a small performance/event space. This later space will enable both live and recorded events -- talks and speeches, debates, and public meetings.
The facility is leveraging funds generated by the Bannock sale proceeds, New Market Tax Credits, fundraising, and other public and private loan funded. The organization’s goal was to ensure organizational financial and work sustainability in the new facility, as well as promote and grow the innovation sector of Denver’s and Colorado’s economy. A primary goal of this project is to provide access to media production organizations and firms to produce and market top-quality content to media outlets throughout the world.
