Marketing & PR Services Framework
Notice Description
This is a Contract Award Notice and as such the procurement process has now ended. HIE is procuring a new over-arching Marketing and PR Services Framework for its own use and on behalf of the named users of the framework. Key to this requirement is delivering targeted messages and engagement to identified audiences, including local communities, businesses, funders and key stakeholders/influencers. Included in this work is event management, media relations, implementation and monitoring of PR and marketing campaigns. The focus of all work will reflect the increasing importance of digital marketing to HIE.
Lot Information
Lot 1
The Framework is anticipated to be awarded for 3 years with an optional 1 year extension. It is estimated that the total value of these services over the maximum duration including the optional extension will be between GBP1,170,000 and GBP1,560,000 excluding VAT. This is based on an estimated annual value of between GBP292,500 and GBP390,000 excluding VAT. This Framework has not been divided into lots since this would make the execution of the framework excessively difficult.. Please note that call-offs under this Framework might be (part)funded by ERDF. Economic operators may be excluded from this competition if they are in any of the situations referred to in Regulation 58 of the Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2015.
Options: HIE may require the supplier to provide additional services. Any such modification shall be in terms of Regulation 72 of the Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2015.
Renewal: This Framework will be awarded for 36 months with an optional 12 month extension.
