Summary of the contracting process

Clackmannanshire Council procured professional marketing and promotional services for its Sport and Leisure facilities and programmes, including the forthcoming Wellbeing Hub. The work covered a comprehensive rebrand and improvement of promotional activity, integrated campaigns aligned with commercial and participation objectives, and collaboration with internal teams and local communities. The supplier was expected to create digital content for websites, social media and email, alongside printed posters, flyers and promotional templates. It also included clear promotional copy and messaging, reusable and editable assets, consistent branding across facilities and channels, and accessible, inclusive materials. The purpose was to increase awareness, engagement and participation in sport, leisure and wellbeing services, including among under-represented groups. The procurement is for services in Clackmannanshire.

This procurement has been awarded following a tender process, with four bids recorded. Big wave media ltd was selected for the marketing and promotional services at an awarded value of £28,660 excluding any further financial details published for the process. The contract was signed on 8 March 2026 and is recorded as active. The requirement was classified as sports-event promotion services under CPV 92621000. The scope covered the Council’s Sport and Leisure facilities, programmes and Wellbeing Hub, rather than a single campaign or isolated design commission. The award demonstrates that the Council evaluated competing supplier offers before selecting a provider for an integrated, commercially focused marketing and rebranding requirement.

This opportunity is relevant to marketing agencies and specialist communications businesses able to combine brand development, campaign planning, graphic design, copywriting and digital content production. Credible competitors for a future requirement would need to show they can deliver integrated campaigns across websites, social media, email and printed materials, while producing editable assets that internal teams can reuse. Experience of maintaining consistent branding across several services or venues would be useful, as would the ability to work collaboratively with public-sector teams and respond to local community priorities. Suppliers should also be able to build accessibility and inclusion into marketing outputs, including communications intended to increase participation among under-represented groups and support health and wellbeing objectives.
