## Summary

The Department for Business & Trade intends to procure marketing production services for its departmental requirements. The work falls within business and business-related services and is likely to involve the production and delivery of marketing materials or other marketing outputs. The procurement is being led by the Department as a central government buyer. The opportunity is relevant to agencies, production companies and specialist marketing suppliers whose core business is delivering marketing production services for public sector or other organisational clients. The requirement is presented as a single service package rather than separate categories of work, with the scope to be defined further as the procurement develops.

This procurement is at the planning stage: the Department has announced an intention to buy but has not invited tenders. It expects to use a selective procedure to make an award under an existing framework, without reopening competition. The planned contract is for one lot, with an indicative term from 1 April 2028 to 30 March 2030. Renewal is allowed, with the contract capable of extending to 31 March 2033. The estimated value is £2,000,000 excluding VAT, or £2,400,000 including VAT. The lot is currently planned, so these arrangements represent the buyer’s stated procurement intention rather than a bid deadline or a live competition.

The requirement is likely to suit established marketing production suppliers that can provide a managed service to a central government department and deliver work consistently across the contract term. Relevant businesses may include marketing agencies, creative production companies and specialist suppliers with experience turning departmental or corporate requirements into completed marketing outputs. Suppliers should assess whether they are eligible to operate through the existing framework, since the planned award is intended to be made under that arrangement without reopening competition. The single-lot structure may suit a provider able to take responsibility for the full marketing production requirement rather than only one narrow service. Businesses can use the planning period to review framework eligibility, public sector references, production capacity and delivery processes.
