The Middle Georgia Regional Commission is soliciting formal consulting services for an Innovation Gap Analysis and Ecosystem Development project for the Middle Georgia region.

On behalf of the Middle Georgia Economic Alliance (MGEA), a previous study was completed by Future iQ and identified the need for an Innovation Gap Analysis within the region. That study provided data and insight regarding steps needed to support smart communities and smart installation at Robins Air Force Base (RAFB) and the surrounding communities. The purpose of this solicitation is to identify a firm to perform an Innovation Gap Analysis followed by technical assistance in the development of an Innovation Ecosystem for the region. These projects will support future work toward the deployment of smart technologies at RAFB and within the surrounding communities.

The Middle Georgia Regional Commission reserves the right to reject any and all proposals received.
