Summary of the contracting process

The Cabinet Office is seeking to award a contract for public relations services under the title "PR Requirement." This procurement process, classified under the CPV code 79416000, took place in Liverpool, England, and is currently complete. The tender, conducted as a selective procurement through a call-off from a framework agreement, concluded on 21st February 2019. The awarded contract, valued at £28,577, has a contract period that commenced on 28th February 2019 and extended until 31st March 2019.

This contract presents potential opportunities for businesses involved in public relations services, particularly those with experience in governmental communications. Firms capable of offering strategic PR support and engaging with public sector stakeholders will find this a suitable contract.
