Summary of the contracting process

Knowsley Council commissioned videography services for the Knowsley Business Awards, an annual ceremony celebrating businesses and individuals contributing to the borough’s success. The 2026 event is intended to showcase shortlisted organisations’ achievements, present them to independent experts and raise their profile. The requirement covers event-related video production for the awards ceremony and sits within the services category, including public relations consultancy and event services. Delivery is associated with Knowsley in England, with the council acting as the buying organisation. The opportunity is relevant to businesses providing professional event videography, filming and production services, particularly those able to capture an awards ceremony and produce material that supports organisational promotion.

This procurement has been awarded following a restricted procedure under a selective procurement method. The tender closed on 3 September 2026 at 09:30, and the award was made on 8 September 2026 to Square One Media Production. The awarded value is £52,725 including the stated currency, GBP. The contract period runs from 23 September 2026 to 22 September 2029. The procurement is complete and the award is active. It was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The requirement was evaluated through the restricted procedure, with the available procurement information describing the service and event purpose but not setting out separate scored criteria.

For a competitor, this award demonstrates established demand from Knowsley Council for specialist videography supporting a high-profile annual business event. Credible suppliers would need strong event filming and video-production capability, with the capacity to plan and work around a formal awards ceremony, capture achievements and produce polished content suitable for showcasing shortlisted businesses. Experience in public relations, promotional communications or event services would be relevant because the work supports both the ceremony and the participating organisations’ public profile. The requirement is suitable for an SME, so a smaller specialist production company with dependable delivery arrangements and evidence of comparable event or corporate work could be well placed when this buyer next reviews the need.
