Mpls school system reportedly to contract $15,000 with Don Allen of IBNN News
for video production services. The Johnny , Northside blog post includes a few
samples of videos produced by IBNN News, including one with a talking white
baby who is called "the new face of north Minneapolis".
Citizens in Mpls don't understand how it is that the school system can't find a
higher quality production company to contract with. Especially finding a
production company that is based in the city, or whose principle owners
actually
live in the city rather than outside the city.
Was there an RFP issued for these video production needs of the school system?
How does the school system typically fill its contracting needs, I am not savvy
about school system processes.
Is this the best way to spend $15,000 of school system money?
What has DWRA2 Enterprises produced in the past that speaks to the results
that
the school system will be purchasing for $15K?
What/where is the discussion by school board officials in which they decided
they needed to find a production company and what are the goals they decided on
trying to fulfull? I'd like to see the minutes of the meetings in which they
decided they needed to procure video production services and how they decided
they would set out to find those services.
Who can point me to the minutes of those school officials meetings?
