Summary of the contracting process

The Weymouth Town Council is embarking on a procurement process for the installation or operation of new advertising infrastructure on Weymouth seafront. This initiative is currently at the planning stage, with the engagement end date set for 28th February 2022. The council is exploring options to modernise its existing advertising methods, which include twelve current advertising sites along the seafront. This project falls under the category of public conveniences and repairs and maintenance of public conveniences, with active interest in either leasing current sites or integrating digital solutions.

This tender presents lucrative opportunities for businesses specialising in advertising infrastructure, particularly those capable of delivering innovative solutions for public spaces. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that focus on digital signage, advertising technology, or traditional advertising mediums would be well-positioned to compete. Interested entities should consider expressing their interest by participating in the council's survey before the deadline, thereby contributing to shaping the future of local advertising practices.

Notice Information

Notice Title

Opportunity to install or operate new advertising infrastructure on Weymouth seafront

Notice Description

The council is now undertaking a pre-engagement process in order to enable the market to shape and inform future decisions. For example, should the council seek to replace the current poster drums with new 6-sheet poster units or, instead, choose digital advertising screens - subject to planning consent? As a small council, we are interested in an arrangements whereby we lease the current sites to an operator and we thereby derive a fee or rent. As explained, we currently have 12 sites along the seafront at Weymouth where advertising drums currently sit, and we are looking for different ways to utilise this space to ensure that the advertising we are doing for local companies and events is at the best quality in terms of presentation of where the advertising takes place on our land. We are looking into how best to organise our advertising services, and enquire into ways to best modernise or refresh our advertising practices. We have therefore created a survey to allow contractors/companies to put forward how they would help us to modernise the advertising infrastructure on Weymouth seafront. If you are interested in helping to look adjust or modernise our current advertising infrastructure please email: procurement@weymouthtowncouncil.gov.uk for a link to the survey before the deadline on the 28th February 2022
