## Summary

The Bradford Metropolitan District Council is initiating a public procurement process for the "Production & Operations for Bingley Music Live Festival", classified under festival organisation services. This open tender procedure encompasses services for the festival years 2018 to 2020, with a potential extension to 2021 and 2022, dependent on funding approvals. The procurement process ended on 6 April 2018, and the contract commenced on 30 April 2018, concluding on 31 October 2020. The total contract value is £3,850,000, with the contract awarded to SSD Music Ltd on 17 May 2018.

This tender presents significant opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specialising in event management, production, and operational services within the arts and entertainment sector. Businesses with expertise in festival organisation and site management may find a platform to not only secure a contract for the upcoming years but potentially develop ongoing relationships with public sector clients such as local councils for future events and festivals.

## Notice

The Council is looking for a Contractor for the Production and Site Management for BML, who will manage all aspects of production, operations and site management for 2018, 2019 and 2020 with an option to extend this to 2021 and again to 2022. The current expectation is for this event to continue but Bidders should note that the festival currently only has funding for 2018. Years 2019 to 2022 will be subject to funding being granted and consequently work in those years cannot be guaranteed.
