In plain English
The University of Warwick is setting up a dynamic framework, a pool of approved communications agencies it can call on as needed, with an estimated value of £600,000. The work covers four areas: strategy and PR, public affairs and stakeholder relations, crisis and reputation management, and creative content and social media. Suppliers can bid for one or more of these areas, and the University will choose whom to use case by case.
What the buyer wants
• Express interest through the University of Warwick In-Tend supplier portal (https://in-tendhost.co.uk/universityofwarwick) • Bid for one or more of the four lots, depending on the communications services you can provide • Show the experienced, specialist agency expertise and delivery capacity the University needs across corporate, academic, research, student recruitment, commercial and reputational communications
Lots
- Strategic Communications and Public Relations
- Public Affairs and Stakeholder Relations
- Crisis and Reputation Management
- Creative Content and Social Media Support
Requirements
What could rule a small business out: The notice sets no explicit minimum turnover, insurance or certification thresholds, but it asks for experienced specialist agencies across four lots with an estimated value of £600,000, which may favour established firms over smaller businesses.
Always check the tender documents.
How to bid
This is a framework: the buyer picks a set of suppliers now and awards work to them over several years. If you are not on it when it is awarded, you usually cannot win work from it until it is re-tendered, so this is the window to bid.
