What is being bought

Published requirement description

We are looking for a supplier to design and layout our members’ handbook (324pp). We will devise the flatplan of the handbook, liaising with the chosen supplier on the design and layout. We will provide the copy while the supplier will use our image library to source appropriate images in response to overall handbook discussions and briefing. The supplier will also work closely with our content production team and the selected printer to prepare files for print, manage the colour and quality of the files, and press pass the handbook. The handbook will be a biennial activity during the specified contract (so at least two issues in the initial term).
