Summary of the contracting process

Leicester City Council appointed a graphic design supplier for De Montfort Hall. The work covers designing materials for both online and print, including the venue’s seasonal brochure, printed and online adverts, and social media images. It is a creative services requirement supporting the Hall’s promotion and communications. Delivery is in Leicester. The requirement is concentrated on a named cultural venue and a mix of recurring publications, advertising and digital assets, rather than a general council-wide design service.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. Leicester City Council used below-threshold limited competition and selected Touch Graphic Design Ltd, trading as Touch Design. The contract was signed on 30 September 2026 and runs from 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2027, with options for three further 12-month extensions, up to 30 September 2030. Its value is £46,400 excluding VAT (£55,680 including VAT). The requirement was arranged as a single lot. The published outcome gives no award date or evaluation criteria, so the basis on which competing offers were assessed cannot be described.

For future work of this kind at De Montfort Hall, a credible supplier would need to deliver a coherent visual identity across print and digital formats, with the practical capacity to produce seasonal brochures, advertising and social media imagery. Experience in graphic design and handling a continuing stream of promotional materials would be relevant, as the requirement spans multiple formats over an ongoing service period. The award to a small design business shows that the work was delivered by an SME rather than requiring a large supplier. This is a focused venue-level requirement, so suppliers with responsive account management and the ability to coordinate design outputs for a cultural venue would be well placed to compete.
