Notice Information

Notice Title

DfT Design and Typesetting Services

Notice Description

The main aim of the requirement is for a one-stop-shop supplier with the facilities to take the communications requirement from initial concept through design and typesetting then output to large format or purely digital product. The winning bidder will be expected to design creative and engaging graphic communications of the Departments' content in large format digital and online media formats. The contractor will provide simple and complex design and typesetting for strategic communications projects and diverse target audiences. Design and advice solutions should reflect the whole life cycle of the project, including creative approaches, as well as practical and innovative digital production solutions. Please see attached document for full description and please note that: There will be occasions when DfT officials will need to convey late and complicated last minute changes directly to the operator at the typesetter's production site to maintain urgent publishing schedules. This will be the case during late running projects for major policy announcements, highly technical policy publications and high profile Ministerial announcements. These revises will often include many technical, design and editing refinements which can go wrong in typesetting and need to be corrected immediately to achieve an accurate revision and maintain the urgent schedule. As the final check, these on-site revises must be incorporated quickly and accurately allowing DfT to advise on adjusting page elements and controlling page creep' to ensure the layout remains acceptable before the final sign-off. The Department therefore has an on-going operational requirement for: * 24hr turnarounds * Late evening and weekend services (by arrangement) * Instructing urgent author corrections at the contractors premises (by arrangement). Additional information: Potential Providers must first be registered on the Crown Commercial Service e-Sourcing Suite.
