The brief

Tenders are invited from interested parties for inclusion in a Framework Agreement for Marketing and Events Support for Keele University's ERDF Funded Projects.

These currently include the approved projects of the Smart Energy Network Demonstrator (SEND); the Keele Research & Innovation Support Programme (KRISP); the Mercia Centre for Innovation Leadership (MCIL); and Business Bridge; which collectively form part of the New Keele Deal.

Additional projects subject to ERDF funding approval may also be included under this framework within the stated estimated framework value.

The Framework Agreement is divided into five lots covering specific goods/services and the University envisage appointing up to three Service Providers in each lot although the University reserves the right to vary this number.

Tenderers can bid for one or more lots.

Whilst the Framework Agreement has a budget of £200,000 no guarantee is given as to the levels of expenditure under the framework and within each lot.

Lot 1 - Branding and Design Services Keele University is seeking organisations or consortia to work with project teams, the University's Directorate of Engagement and Partnerships and the Directorate of Marketing and Communications to design and develop a distinct brand identity for the four projects (SEND, KRISP, MCIL, Business Bridge) individually and for the programme (New Keele Deal) as a whole.

Additional projects subject to ERDF approval may also be included under this framework within the stated estimated framework value.

Further information is given in the Tender Specification in Section 2 of the invitation to tender (ITT).
