British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) Issues Media Strategy RFP

The BBC is seeking a media agency to manage the planning, buying and return on investment evaluation of external media activity, as well as delivering strategic insights and analysis of the wider emerging media market. This is critical to ensure we deliver value for money to the UK public.

Background:

The BBC is responsible for ensuring that all audiences are aware of the programs and services that their license fee has funded and how they can access them to achieve maximum value from their license fee. New digital behaviors, particularly for younger audiences, means that it is becoming increasingly challenging to reach young audiences solely through promotion on our owned media channels. Thus, it is essential, in order to fulfill our responsibilities, that we use paid-for media channels to complement our owned media.

However, the final decision as to which is the most economically advantageous (by reference to the award criteria) will be made by the BBC. The awarding authority reserves the right not to award a contract and to annul the procurement process at any stage. Tenders and all supporting documents must be priced in sterling and all payments will be made in sterling. The contract shall be subject to English law. The awarding authority does not bind itself to accept the lowest, or any tender and reserves the right to accept part of a tender unless the tenderer expressly stipulates otherwise in the tender document.
