Summary of the contracting process

The National Heritage Memorial Fund is seeking proposals for the design of annual reports for both the National Lottery Heritage Fund and the National Heritage Memorial Fund. This open procurement process, characterised by its accelerated timeline due to the current contract's impending expiry at the end of March 2022, has a tender submission deadline extended to 1st April 2022 at noon. The project is valued at £78,000 and falls within the services industry, specifically focused on design, with the contract period commencing on 1st April 2022 and concluding on 30th September 2024.

This tender presents significant opportunities for design firms, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), looking to expand their portfolio in public sector work. Competitors should have expertise in delivering accessible design services, including producing print and web-ready formats that meet WCAG 2.1 standards. With a strong emphasis on flexibility to accommodate frequent revisions and a requirement for both English and Welsh outputs, businesses capable of quick turnaround and high-quality design will be particularly well-suited to utilise this opportunity for growth.
