The Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy (BEIS) has completed a procurement process for the project titled "Digital Explainer Videos." This undertaking falls under the IT services industry category, specifically focusing on software development and support, with a contract value of £22,500. The procurement was conducted via an open procedure and the award was made on August 26, 2021. The contract covers the creation of six short animations over a six-month period, with the delivery of at least one downloadable file scheduled for completion by December 31, 2021.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) in the animation and digital media sectors. Businesses with expertise in video production, animation, and scriptwriting would be particularly well-suited to compete for similar projects, leveraging their creative capabilities to meet the needs of government clients in delivering engaging digital services. Potential suppliers can benefit from being part of government contracts that can lead to further opportunities within the public sector.
