The Met Office has commenced market engagement activities to inform its approach to sourcing a new Framework for Communications. The Met Office is seeking suppliers who we can work with to help us deliver impactful, innovative, cost-effective and on-brand campaigns and communications related projects. Our ambition is that we can be much more agile in bringing on board suppliers, agencies and specialists for short-term projects and campaigns - making it quicker, easier and simpler for us and you.
It is the intention to procure this requirement via an Open Procedure under the Procurement Act 2023 (PA23).
The proposed structure of the framework is split into four Lots:
Lot 1 - THINK: Communications Strategy, Campaigns and Reputation
Lot 2 - MAKE: Content, Studio and Technical Delivery
Lot 3 - IDENTITY: Brand, Identity and Experience
Lot 4 - DELIVER: Events and Engagement Delivery
Note: Suppliers can bid for a single lot or multiple lots.
The total estimated value of the framework is £1,000,000, covering all four Lots over a 4-year period.

A virtual supplier engagement event will be held as follows:
Date: 5th August 2026
Time: 13:30 - 15:00
Location: Microsoft Teams
This session will provide an opportunity for suppliers to contribute to the development of the Met Office's approach to sourcing these capabilities.

A presentation outlining current thinking
A Q&A session
A briefing on next steps
