Summary of the contracting process

The Money and Pensions Service, a central government public authority located in Bedford, UK, recently completed a procurement process for "Campaign Support," which involved the supply of creative consultancy and assets for advertising and marketing services. The tender, identified with the code C1187, was conducted under a limited competition method, highlighting a below threshold procurement approach. The authority awarded the contract to MSQ Partners, a large-scale supplier based in London. Although the procurement stage is now in the 'Award' phase, it reached completion as of 21 September 2025, with the contract signed on 14 August 2025, set to conclude by the end of December 2025.

This tender presents substantial business growth opportunities, especially for companies specialising in advertising, marketing, and creative consultancy. Enterprises adept at offering comprehensive marketing solutions would find such contracts beneficial for enhancing their market presence and service portfolio. While MSQ Partners was awarded the contract, similar tenders can attract businesses looking to engage with central government operations, particularly those that are nimble and efficiently manage projects constrained by competitive limits due to their 'below threshold' nature.
