SCOPIE OF WORK
The Contractor is to design, fabricate, and install four unique interpretive panels at
specified visitor centers along the Florida Keys Scenic Highway. They are to be installed
inside the buildings so as to be protected from severe weather events and the natural
elements. The interpretive panels shall be consistent with the scenic highway vision
outlined in the Florida Keys Scenic Highway (FKSH) Corridor Management Plan and
Interpretive Master Plan, links to which can be found at www.scenichighwayflkeys.com.
The intention is for the interpretive panels to enhance the travelers overall corridor
experience by providing maps, points of interest and activities for each area in a multi-
lingual format.
The funding for this project is through a Local Agency Program (LAP) Agreement with
the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT). The total project cost is not to exceed
$45,000, and the Contractor shall submit invoices with progress reports of activities
according to the Schedule of Deliverables below until the work under this agreement is
completed. Reimbursable expenses (travel, mileage, meals, lodging etc.) are not allowed

The Contractor will conceptualize the interpretive message and draft the interpretive text
in coordination with the FKSCA project subcommittee, the Monroe County Scenic
Highway Coordinator, and subject- matter experts. The Contractor will conduct at least
one meeting in person in the Florida Keys with the FKSCA project subcommittee and the
Monroe County Scenic Highway Coordinator after the contract is awarded. The
Contractor will also conduct site visits to the visitor centers to assess the general area and
the specific panel locations. Using agreed upon elements, brand identity and style
vocabulary will be established. These design elements should highlight the FKSH's
character and intrinsic qualities. Digital audio repeaters will be installed with each
interpretive panel to incorporate multiple languages as audio elements. The Contractor
will produce and record four scripts for each visitor center for a total of sixteen unique
scripts. The four scripts for each center include language translations and an English
recording. The Contractor will propose the panel materials to use and method of
installation. The County must approve all panel specifications, design, and text prior to
fabrication. In addition to fabrication and installation of the four panels, all designs must
be provided to the County and FKSCA in PDF format and the graphics formats
appropriate to the manufacturing of the signs. The County shall exclusively own all
rights to reproduce all text and graphics and audio created under this contract. The
