Summary of the contracting process

The Life Sciences Hub Wales Ltd, based in Cardiff, recently completed a procurement process for a Video Production Framework under the title "LSHW.003.2025". This procurement falls within the services industry category, specifically focusing on video-tape production for advertising and information purposes. The framework was established for the production of high-quality videos aimed at articulating the value the organisation adds to the life sciences innovation ecosystem in Wales. The procurement process began with a tender stage, which had a submission deadline of 2nd September 2025. The award was made on 29th September 2025, followed by the activation of the contract on 1st October 2025, with operations anticipated to continue until at least 30th September 2026, with the possibility of further extensions up to 30th September 2028. The process utilised an open competition method that was below the standard financial threshold, designed to ensure competitive and accessible procurement.

This procurement presents significant business opportunities for organisations involved in motion picture and video-tape production services, particularly those that are small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), which fits the project's suitability criteria. The buyer, Life Sciences Hub Wales, intended to select a single supplier to support its initiatives, reflected by the awarding of the contract to Eyes Open Media. This framework offers a structured opportunity for growth as it could lead to multiple call-off work packages, encompassing a broad range of video production needs. For businesses with expertise in fulfilling dynamic advertising, informational, and entertainment content within the framework of public sector requirements, this type of public procurement is an ideal fit. Companies meeting the tender's legislative and regulatory compliance, such as holding Cyber Essentials or ISO27001 certifications, and managing data protection according to UK GDPR, would be uniquely well-suited to maximise the growth potential stemming from this procurement.
