Summary of the contracting process

Transport for Greater Manchester (TfGM) has completed a procurement process to establish a Creative Services Framework aimed at engaging multiple marketing agencies. This effort is designed to bolster their capabilities in executing multi-channel campaigns across Greater Manchester, promoting sustainable travel. The procurement process, culminating in an award on 5th May 2026, was conducted through an open competitive flexible procedure. Covering strategic and creative marketing services as well as artwork and graphics, the framework seeks to support the internal marketing team in delivering ambitious projects, which include initiatives like active travel infrastructure and public transport enhancements. Interested parties were required to submit bids electronically, with the contract intended to commence on 1st July 2026, running until 30th June 2029, with the possibility of renewal.

This framework presents numerous business growth opportunities for marketing agencies, particularly those skilled in strategic marketing, graphic design, and multi-channel campaign execution. The procurement, allowing for involvement through a mini-competition or direct award for projects valued under £50,000, is well-suited for both SMEs and larger firms capable of providing innovative marketing solutions. Agencies that specialise in advertising, market research, and graphic design can leverage this framework to collaborate with TfGM in delivering impactful campaigns aimed at transforming travel habits in Greater Manchester, setting a fruitful stage for business expansion and heightened sector involvement.
