The tender, titled "QU521 - Birmingham City Centre 3D Model - AWARD," falls within the services industry, specifically under design-modelling services. The procurement method used was an open procedure, with submissions for the completed quotation required by noon on 27th September 2021. The awarded contract has a value of £55,540 and spans from 11th November 2021 until 11th August 2022. This contract presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in design, architectural services, and CGI software development, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) looking to expand their portfolio. Companies with expertise in producing photo-realistic visualisations and interactive digital models would be well-positioned to compete in similar future procurement processes. As urban development increasingly relies on advanced visual presentation, successful bidders can leverage this contract to showcase their capabilities and attract new clients in the public sector. ## Notice Birmingham City Council requires a supplier for the provision of 3D geometry data modelling the City Centre and surrounds. A range of City Council activities are supported by the architectural Computer Generated Imagery (CGI) function of City Design and Conservation. This service supplies photo-realistic 3D visualisations of development proposals for marketing and publicity purposes and for use in documents such as the Our Future City Plan. Developments in CGI software have created opportunities to use such data in new ways to support the planning and design process and to create innovative marketing and communications materials including interactive digital models, allowing users to explore development proposals and growth areas in real time.
