There's No Fuss For Fahlgren

Visit Florida Renews Contract With Incumbent’s Tampa Office
ATLANTA–Officials with Fahlgren in Tampa, Fla., got a shock two weeks ago when they attended a board of directors meeting at Visit Florida–their client formerly known as the Florida Department of Commerce.
On the agenda was a request for proposal that would be issued shortly (Fahlgren’s current contract expires next June). Since the group privatized last year, however, the mandate to evaluate the business on a regular basis disappeared, along with its resolve to conduct a review.
According to Fahlgren executive vice president Ginger Watters, the board voted to shelve the rfp and begin negotiating a new contract with the incumbent.
