The procurement stage is currently active with a tender period ending on 11th April 2024 and a contract period from 1st May to 31st October 2024. The location of the procurement is in London, United Kingdom. The procurement method is an open procedure below threshold. This tender presents an opportunity for businesses involved in research and development consultancy services to compete for a contract with BFI. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) are suitable for this tender, offering a chance to contribute to the long-term sustainability of production support services in the UK's film and TV production sector. Interested businesses should act promptly to express their interest via the provided portal before the tender period deadline on 11th April 2024. ## Notice Film and TV productions face numerous logistical and practical challenges. Across the UK, multiple organisations provide world-class production support services to help productions plan their shoot, find crew, suppliers, studio space and locations, and strengthen the UK's film-friendly production ecosystem. A wide range of productions rely on these services, from large budget inward investment studio films and high-end television productions filming over a number of weeks and months, to smaller independent films and short term productions. Currently these services are provided through a patch work of funding, including through devolved and local government, as well as commercial providers. We are seeking a supplier to conduct a review to inform this work and secure the long-term sustainability of production support services. The review will look specifically - and only - at National Lottery funded production support services activity delivered by the BFC and Creative England. Activities delivered by these organisations funded by other means are out of scope of this review.
