Notice Description
This is a Contract Award Notice and as such the Procurement process has now ended.

Lot Information
Lot 1
HIE is currently procuring marketing services frameworks and contracts. HIE (including any subsidiary organisation and/or associated company), ICOA, HIAL and SNH (i.e.the named users of the marketing framework) is seeking to appoint a suitably qualified and experienced supplier to provide a copywriting service for HIE and any other named users of the Framework to use in promoting their range of products and services, investments and geographies. Such text may also be used in joint promotions with other agencies and partners. This Framework has not been divided into Lots since this would make the execution of the Framework excessively difficult.. 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.
