## Summary

The Department for Culture Media & Sport has completed a procurement process for the project titled "Post-event assurance of the Film and TV Production Restart Scheme to support the COVID-19 Response." This initiative, aimed at restoring confidence in UK film and TV productions impacted by COVID-19, has a contract amount of £426,350 and falls under the category of business services, specifically legal and consulting services. The procurement method utilised was selective, involving a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender period concluded on 10th February 2021, while the contract is in effect from 3rd March 2021 to 31st January 2022, with the award notice published on 12th July 2021.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses in the consulting and assurance sectors, particularly those experienced in risk management and compliance services related to COVID-19. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are encouraged to explore similar opportunities within government projects, which often require expert support to navigate the complexities of public health-related impacts on industry sectors. By engaging with the contract, suitable businesses can not only contribute to the recovery efforts but also expand their footprint within the public sector.

## Notice

The Film and TV Production Restart Scheme is an overall package of PS500m which is being provided for UK film and TV productions struggling to get insurance for Covid-related costs. The scheme will help productions across the country that have been halted or delayed by an inability to obtain insurance for Covid-19 related risks to get back up and running, by giving productions the confidence they need that they will be supported if future losses are incurred due to Covid-19. DCMS wishes to appoint a Supplier to perform post-event assurance activity for the Film and TV Production Restart Scheme
