Summary of the contracting process

Co-Ownership Housing is seeking a media partner to provide advertising services under a single-supplier framework. The work covers a range of advertising, with the detailed requirements set out in the Invitation to Tender. The buyer is based in Belfast, and the service is for delivery in the United Kingdom. This is a services contract for suppliers able to plan and deliver advertising activity for a housing organisation. The framework is intended to appoint one supplier, rather than divide the requirement among multiple providers. Advertising and marketing services (CPV 79340000) is the stated service category.

The buyer invited offers through an open procedure for a single-supplier framework, with no further competition to award individual work. The tender deadline set was 23 November 2026 at 12:00, and the deadline for questions was 16 November 2026 at 17:00. The stated award decision date was 11 January 2027. The contract period is 25 January 2027 to 23 January 2032. The estimated value is £1.3 million excluding VAT (£1.56 million including VAT). Quality carries 70% of the evaluation score and price 30%. Economic and technical participation requirements are set out in the Conditions of Participation document.

The opportunity suits an advertising or media agency able to act as the sole media partner and deliver a range of advertising services for Co-Ownership Housing. Small and medium-sized businesses are considered suitable, making the framework relevant to agencies of that scale as well as larger providers with the capacity to manage a broad service requirement. The evaluation gives quality substantially greater weight than price, so suppliers should be prepared to demonstrate the strength of their proposed service and approach alongside competitive pricing. Economic and technical participation conditions apply; suppliers should check the Conditions of Participation document to assess whether they meet the required financial standing and delivery capability. The five-year framework favours providers able to support the relationship over an extended term.
