Statement of Objectives - SDTX Social Media Manager

STATEMENT OF OBJECTIVES (SOO)

SOCIAL MEDIA MANAGER

Background
The United States Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of Texas (USAOSDTX) serves one of the Nation’s largest federal law enforcement and judicial districts, covering approximately 10 million people across 43 counties and 44,000 square miles. The Office is headquartered in Houston and operates branch offices in Galveston, Victoria, Corpus Christi, Brownsville, McAllen, and Laredo.
The U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of Texas leads USAO-SDTX and is the District’s chief federal law enforcement officer and the lawyer representing the United States Government. His priorities are as follows:
•

Enhance public safety: reduce the violence that flows from gangs, recidivists, drug and human traffickers, and those with no respect for human life. Destroy transnational criminal and foreign terrorist organizations: hunt down cartels and other criminal enterprises that deal in drugs, women and children, weapons, and illegal aliens, and smoke out their networks of bosses, money launderers, stash houses, suppliers, and allies.
Defend American sovereignty: secure our border and help deport and punish illegal aliens, whose very existence on American soil is criminal; protect the integrity of our elections; guard our institutions against foreign interference. Eradicate public corruption: hold accountable those in power who betray public trust through bribery, procurement or grant fraud, election crimes, and abuse of office.
Protect the American taxpayer against fraud: ensure that taxpayer dollars are used only for their lawful intended purpose by prosecuting those who fraudulently steal funds or rig systems related to federal benefits, government contracts, natural disasters, and immigration.

The Office fulfills these priorities dozens of times each day through its investigative, law enforcement, litigation, and prosecutorial work. To effectively communicate those efforts and accomplishments to the public—and thereby strengthen public confidence in the Office’s federal law enforcement mission and deter future criminal conduct—the Office seeks professional digital content services.
Position Sought
USAO-SDTX seeks to contract with an individual or public relations firm to provide professional digital content, social media, photography, videography, graphic design, and creative media services. The individual designated to perform these services will be referred to throughout this Statement of Objectives as the Social Media Manager.
