Summary of the contracting process

The British Film Institute is seeking research and consultancy services for the interim evaluation of its Screen Culture 2033 strategy. The strategy launched in September 2022; this evaluation is Phase 2, following the completed FAME Preliminary Review (Phase 1). The scope includes research consultancy, market research, and business and management consultancy. The procurement concerns evaluation of the strategy; the source gives no further breakdown of specific research activities or deliverables. The buying organisation is the British Film Institute, based in London. The work’s delivery location is not stated.

The buyer invited offers through an open competition below the UK procurement threshold. This is the tender stage. The deadline for questions was 20 November 2026 at 12:00, and the bid submission deadline was 27 November 2026 at 12:00. The contract is scheduled to run from 1 February to 30 November 2027. The stated procurement value is £140,000 excluding VAT (£168,000 including VAT). There is one lot. Bids are evaluated on quality, weighted at 70%, and value for money, weighted at 30%. Offers can be submitted electronically through the buyer’s tendering portal.

This opportunity is suited to research and consultancy firms able to evaluate a cultural strategy, conduct market research and provide business or management advice. Suppliers should be able to develop and deliver an interim evaluation that builds on the completed preliminary review and assesses the Screen Culture 2033 strategy. The quality-led evaluation places greater weight on the strength of the proposed approach than on value for money, so relevant evaluation expertise and a credible research methodology are likely to be important commercially. The work is a defined, single-lot assignment lasting around ten months, which may suit providers with capacity to undertake a focused project. The procurement does not state required accreditations, minimum experience, specific staffing levels or other participation conditions.
