## Summary

The Waste & Resources Action Programme (WRAP), located in Banbury, United Kingdom, is in the planning stage of establishing a Digital Services Framework, titled "FRA086 Digital Services Framework". This procurement process falls within the services category, focusing on IT and business services, including consulting and software development. The request for information (RFI) is currently open to gauge interest and capability, with questions to be submitted by 18th November 2025. The upcoming framework is set to begin in Spring 2026 and continue for up to five years, with an overall value of £2 million.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses offering IT services, such as consulting, software development, and digital marketing. Companies with robust capabilities in strategy development, content creation, and web design would align well with the needs of WRAP’s Communications Team, which seeks expertise for a flexible digital framework. Agencies with the ability to deliver quality outputs promptly and a pool of freelancers are encouraged to respond, providing a diverse range of solutions. This is an ideal opportunity for businesses looking to establish or expand their presence in public sector digital services.

## Notice

WRAP's Communications Team is exploring the potential establishment of a Digital Framework to support the in-house digital team with specialist expertise and overflow capacity. The framework aims to provide flexible access to retained agencies and a pool of freelancers who can deliver a range of outputs. This may include strategy development, content development, managing paid media, website design and development, custom web application design and development, and hosting. Given the breadth of this scope, WRAP seeks a range of suppliers with differing expertise and capable of providing high-quality solutions, sometimes with short turnaround times. This preliminary market engagement exercise is intended to assess supplier capabilities, interest and capacity to support this potential framework. The insights gathered will help shape the scope and structure of any future procurement exercise. It is anticipated that the Framework will commence in Spring 2026, with a proposed initial contract length of 5 years, and an estimated total Framework value of PS2m over that period.
