Summary of the contracting process

The British Film Institute (BFI) has concluded the award stage for the procurement titled "Screen Business 2025-2026 Edition - AWARD". The project focuses on research consultancy services, specifically analysing the economic contribution of various screen sector tax reliefs in the UK, covering sectors such as film, high-end television, and video games. Located in London, UK, with opportunities for delivery across British Overseas Territories and Europe, the procurement process employed an open procedure. The tender period ended on 12 March 2025, and the contract is set to begin on 25 April 2025, running until 31 March 2026. The awarded supplier, Nordicity Limited, will be responsible for providing the required services valued at £109,290.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in research consultancy, particularly those specialising in economic and market research as well as polling and statistics. Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) are especially encouraged to engage, given their suitability criteria. Companies with expertise in assessing and analysing the impact of tax reliefs and visual effects within the screen sectors would find this contract advantageous. The procurement not only offers substantial financial prospects but also provides a platform for businesses to contribute to an essential report that influences economic decision-making within the UK's screen industries.
