Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The British Film Institute (BFI) is seeking to procure Audio Visual Services (AVS) through an open tender process aimed at enhancing the preservation and public access to UK audio visual heritage. The procurement falls under the services category and is currently in the award stage following a successful bidding process. The tender was initiated in January 2022, with a contract value of £30,000. The delivery addresses are located in the UK, with critical milestones including a contract period of 36 months, potentially extendable by a further 12 months.

This tender offers substantial business opportunities for companies specialising in motion picture and video tape production, particularly those capable of addressing large-scale digitisation needs. Small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the audio-visual sector, including those with expertise in digitisation, media preservation, and related services, would be well-suited to compete for this contract. The clear demand for increased capacity underlines the potential for growth in this field, especially as the BFI looks to expand its capabilities through commercial partnerships.

Notice Information

Notice Title

Audio Visual Services (AVS)

Notice Description

The BFI and its strategic partners are responsible for the preservation and public accessibility of a significant share of UK audio visual heritage. It is universally accepted that content essentially 'locked' within obsolete tape-based audio and video recording systems are increasingly at risk due to the proprietary and commercially unsupported nature of the products used to create them over a period spanning many decades.While the BFI and its partners maintain considerable expertise and machinery to support and preserve these formats through digitisation, it is clear that greater capacity through commercial provision will be required to facilitate an accelerated programme of large-scale digitisation for video and audio content to provide suitable digital file formats and associated metadata for long-term preservation.
