UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

NPL Management Limited commissioned marketing and communications services to develop and deliver industry-focused campaign content. The work covers targeted campaign materials and stakeholder engagement content for the telecommunications, broadcast and data centre sectors. Activities include content development, messaging, campaign planning and production of sector-specific communications assets. The purpose is to raise awareness, communicate programme benefits and support engagement with stakeholders across these industries. This is a services requirement, classified as advertising and marketing services (CPV 79340000), delivered in the United Kingdom. The buyer is NPL Management Limited, based at the National Physical Laboratory in Teddington. The requirement was organised as a single lot and was awarded to Memetic Communications Limited, an SME.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. It was a below-threshold tender for a single lot, with the contract awarded to Memetic Communications Limited. The contract was signed on 25 August 2026 and runs from 25 August 2026 to 25 August 2026. Its value is £3,075,000 excluding VAT, or £3,690,000 including VAT. The contract and award are recorded as active. The requirement was evaluated as a services procurement for advertising and marketing work, covering the development and delivery of campaign content for telecommunications, broadcast and data centre audiences. The available outcome shows one supplier selected for the full requirement. The procurement is therefore relevant as a record of a completed, high-value sector marketing and communications commission by NPL Management Limited.

This procurement demonstrates demand from NPL Management Limited for substantial, sector-specific marketing and communications capability rather than general promotional support. Suppliers positioned for similar work would need to combine campaign planning with strong content development, messaging and production skills, and be able to create communications assets tailored to technically specialised audiences in telecommunications, broadcasting and data centres. Experience of raising awareness of programmes, explaining benefits clearly and engaging varied stakeholders would strengthen a competing offer. Credibility would also depend on managing an integrated service across strategy, content and delivery, while understanding the language, commercial priorities and stakeholder networks of the relevant industries. Specialist agencies and communications SMEs with demonstrable sector campaigns are the closest fit.
