Interested parties should note that the tender period ends on 25 January 2017, with the projected contract start date set for 1 April 2017, extending until 31 December 2019. The total anticipated value of the contract is up to £4,375,000, with an initial two-year term expected to be around £1,000,000. The primary location for service delivery is London, United Kingdom. This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in data analysis and market research, particularly those with a strong background in media performance assessment across various platforms, including TV, radio, and online. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are particularly encouraged to participate, leveraging their agility and innovative solutions. As the project involves both regular and ad-hoc reporting, firms offering flexible reporting capabilities and extensive experience with diverse data sources will be well-positioned to compete effectively for this contract. ## Notice The provision is to provide reports covering audience research data collation, analysis and reporting across all the media platforms on which the BBC operates (TV, radio, online) - covering the performance of all BBC services and their competitors in the marketplace. To meet these requirements data is drawn from a wide range of data sources including BARB, RAJAR, surveys and panels, web stats and social metrics. The requirement is for secondary analysis and reporting - not for primary data collection. The anticipated value of the initial 2 year term is expected to be in the region of 1 000 000 GBP. The maximum value of 4 375 000 000 GBP includes the initial term plus any available extensions executed to term or variations to scope. The current contract provides a total of 140 reports covering audience research data collation, analysis and reporting across all the media platforms on which the BBC operates (TV, radio, online) - covering the performance of all BBC services and their competitors in the marketplace. To meet these requirements data is drawn from a wide range of data sources including BARB, RAJAR, surveys and panels, web stats and social metrics. The requirement is for secondary analysis and reporting - not for primary data collection. The new provision will be to appoint 1 supplier to provide both Data Analysis and Ad-Hoc reporting. The new provision is based on last year's demand, where there were 560 ad-hoc reporting requests and c80 regular reports with variable frequencies (daily, weekly, monthly and quarterly). There will be a phased approach in reducing the volume of reports via in-sourcing during the initial term. The following is anticipated during the initial 2 year term of the contract: - Year 1 of the contract approximately 75 %-90 % of the current sets of regular reports will be run and 85 %-90 % of ad-hoc reports will be outsourced. - Year 2 of the contract approximately 50 %-75 % of the current sets of regular reports and 50 %-70 % of ad-hoc reports will be outsourced. The aim is to have in-sourced 50 % of regular/ad-hoc reporting by December 2019. Further in sourcing capabilities will be determined prior to executing available contract extensions.
