Summary of the contracting process

National Savings & Investments bought advertising and marketing services from The Team Brand. The work covers the buyer’s requirements across the United Kingdom and is intended to support its brand and marketing activity. The buying organisation is National Savings & Investments, based in London. This is a services procurement rather than a supply or construction contract. The requirement was suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, so agencies with an SME operating model were within the intended supplier market. Businesses relevant to this requirement include brand agencies, advertising agencies and integrated marketing firms able to deliver services nationally for a major public-sector financial savings organisation.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded on 22 July 2026 to The Team Brand. The award value is £3,900,000. The contract period runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2029. It used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement, with tender submissions due by 9 June 2026 at 12:00. The selected supplier is The Team Brand. The procurement’s stated category is advertising and marketing services. The award is active and the overall tender status is complete. The contract period and award value apply to the single reported award; no separate lots or additional awards are identified.

This award shows that National Savings & Investments has demand for substantial, sustained brand and marketing support delivered across the United Kingdom through a framework call-off. It is relevant to agencies that combine brand strategy with advertising and wider marketing delivery, and that can operate at national scale for a public-sector financial organisation. A credible future competitor would need a strong brand-led proposition, the capacity to provide joined-up campaign and marketing services, and experience managing a sizeable, multi-year client relationship. The buyer’s identification of the opportunity as suitable for SMEs also indicates that smaller specialist agencies, or capable agency partnerships, may be well placed where they can demonstrate sufficient delivery capacity and public-sector readiness.
