Creative Services Framework

Notice Description

WRAP's Communications Team is exploring the potential establishment of a Creative Services Framework to support the in-house creative team with overflow capacity and specialist expertise. The framework aims to provide flexible access to a pool of freelancers and retained agencies who can deliver a range of creative outputs across digital and print channels. This may include the production of reports & publications, infographics, visual identity development, digital and print assets, photography, videography, animation, and illustration. Given the reactive and fast-paced nature of this work, WRAP seeks suppliers capable of providing high-quality creative solutions with short turnaround times. This preliminary market engagement exercise is intended to assess supplier capabilities, interest and capacity to support this potential framework. The insights gathered will help shape the scope and structure of any future procurement exercise. It is anticipated that the Framework will commence in 2025/26 calendar year, with a proposed initial contract length of 1-5 years. Support/overflow for in-house design team workload and capacity. Examples of request types are listed below, and vary across both digital and offline channels: *Designed PDF reports *Bespoke Infographics *Visual Identity Development *Digital assets (e.g. social, web, paid media) *Print materials (e.g. event materials, banners, flyers, posters) *Photography *Videography *Animation *Illustration *Amendments to existing artwork & publications *Ad hoc support during pinch points (E.g. hero campaign weeks, product launches, high profile events) For more information about this opportunity, please visit the Delta eSourcing portal at: https://www.delta-esourcing.com/tenders/UK-title/67D4293D68 To respond to this opportunity, please click here: https://www.delta-esourcing.com/respond/67D4293D68
