Notice Title

Creation and Hosting of Ofgem Podcast

Notice Description

In a rapidly evolving energy landscape, it is essential for Ofgem to stay at the forefront of industry discourse and knowledge-sharing. Therefore, the team would like to create an Ofgem-branded podcast, which will provide an avenue for Ofgem to engage with a broader audience, including industry experts, identified thought leaders, policy makers and the public. Ofgem would like the format to closely resemble the highly acclaimed "The Enquiry" by BBC world service, offering in depth analysis, investigative reporting and expert insights - though the team are open to discussion with the successful tenderer on this setup. The initial podcast series should consist of a minimum of eight episodes with each episode lasting for approximately 30 to 40 minutes. A 2nd series may be commissioned depending on the success of the first.
