## Summary

Cardiff University has announced plans for a procurement process aimed at establishing a Film, Video, and Animation Production Framework. This initiative, under the industry's Motion Picture and Video Services category (CPV 92100000), entails various specialised lots and sublots designed to support the University's diverse video production needs. The framework includes large-scale video production projects, smaller scale productions, as well as services for animation, motion graphics, and event recordings. Located in Cardiff (region UKL22), this procurement process is currently in the planning stage with an estimated contract value of £2,000,000. Key dates include a future notice date on 22 October 2024.

This tender offers substantial growth opportunities for businesses in the film, video production, and animation sectors. Companies ranging from established media agencies and video production specialists to smaller, niche production companies can compete for different lots, depending on their speciality and capacity. By participating, businesses can secure contracts to produce high-end video content, animation projects, and event recordings, fostering long-term partnerships with Cardiff University. The framework is ideal for companies aiming to expand their client base within the educational sector and enhance their portfolio with prestigious university projects.

## Notice

Cardiff University require video production activities support across the organisation. The aim is to onboard a diverse range of suppliers, from established agencies and video production specialists to smaller scale production companies, to cater for the needs of our stakeholders and their changeable budgetary scale, timescale and creative requirements. Suppliers will need the ability to direct, produce and edit content aimed at a wide range of audiences such as students, internal communications and industry partners, for use across multiple platforms. The framework will consist of 3 lots, with Lot 1 containing 2 sublots: Lot 1 - Video production a. Lot 1a - Large (detailed as Lot 1 on this notice) b. Lot 1b - Small (detailed as Lot 10 on this notice) Lot 2 - Animation and motion graphics (detailed as Lot 2 on this notice) Lot 3 - Event and seminar recording (detailed as Lot 3 on this notice) All lots and sublots can be applied for separately.

### Lot Information

Lot 1a - Video Production - Large

This lot encompasses video content that broadly promotes the University and/or specifically communicates the value proposition of its academic programs, facilities, research endeavours, or industry partnerships. The large lot will be about producing high-end, large-scale content that positions Cardiff University as a market leader, for use across multiple platforms.

Lot 2 - Animation and motion graphics

The university frequently needs to communicate ideas, concepts and initiatives that have little or no tangible, filmable component. In these situations, we often commission animation/motion graphics projects, varying in both usage and complexity.

Lot 3 - Event and seminar recording

This lot is concerned with the recording (video and/or audio) of events that may take place both on and off-campus e.g. keynote addresses and academic and research events.

Lot 1b - Video Production - Small

This lot encompasses video content that broadly promotes the University and/or specifically communicates the value proposition of its academic programs, facilities, research endeavours, or industry partnerships. The small lot will be small scale productions e.g. social media shorts, paid digital ads, or short web videos.
