## Summary

The contract award notice for the "Hybrid Webcasting" project was issued by Renfrewshire Council, located in Paisley, UK (region UKM83). This procurement, falling under the industry category of general public services, specifically focuses on webcasting services. The procurement process has been completed with Public-i Group Ltd as the awarded supplier for this contract. The initiative aims to provide hybrid webcasting services, including hardware, support, and maintenance. The contract was signed on 24th June 2025, with the procurement method being a limited one, explicit as an award procedure without a prior call for competition, intended to allow careful market evaluation synchronized with local elections scheduled for May 2027. The total contract value is £55,000.

This tender presents substantial business opportunities by necessitating a range of services such as software licensing, support, and staff training for hybrid webcasting operations. Companies that specialise in web-based broadcasting technology, maintenance, and support would be well-suited to deliver on such requirements, and small to medium enterprises (SMEs) interested in public sector collaboration may find this contract particularly appealing. The project allows the awarded supplier to contribute to enhancing public accessibility to council meeting coverage, aligning with broader digital public service trends. As such, it would be highly beneficial for tech companies looking to expand their service offerings to local government bodies.
