Notice Title

Production Support Review

Notice Description

Film and TV productions face numerous logistical and practical challenges. Across the UK, multiple organisations provide world-class production support services to help productions plan their shoot, find crew, suppliers, studio space and locations, and strengthen the UK's film-friendly production ecosystem. A wide range of productions rely on these services, from large budget inward investment studio films and high-end television productions filming over a number of weeks and months, to smaller independent films and short term productions. Currently these services are provided through a patch work of funding, including through devolved and local government, as well as commercial providers. We are seeking a supplier to conduct a review to inform this work and secure the long-term sustainability of production support services. The review will look specifically - and only - at National Lottery funded production support services activity delivered by the BFC and Creative England. Activities delivered by these organisations funded by other means are out of scope of this review. Additional information: To take part in this tender, please visit our website, at https://in-tendhost.co.uk/bfi/aspx/Tenders/Current , where you will need to register, if you haven't already, and express an interest in this opportunity to access the relevant documents. Please note expressions of interest will only be accepted via the portal. Is a Recurrent Procurement Type? : No
