Published requirement descriptionThe BBC is seeking to establish a roster of non-exclusive, best value for money pan-BBC framework agreements for the provision of Professional and Consumer Cameras and Accessories.
The aim of the framework is to provide competitive agreements covering a broad and diverse range of equipment, high service levels, high quality comprehensive technical back up and support, warranty and guidance on equipment use, inclusive in product pricing, together with part exchange provision, for a full range of products.
The lot structure is as follows:
LOT 1: STUDIO CAMERA SYSTEMS AND ACCESSORIES
LOT 2: FIELD CAMERAS AND ACCESSORIES
LOT 3: CONSUMER/PROSUMER CAMERAS AND ACCESSORIES
LOT 4: PROFESSIONAL BROADCAST LENSES
LOT 5: ADVANCED CAMERA BATTERY SYSTEMS
LOT 6: ALL OTHER CAMERA ACCESSORIES
The spend range over the term of 4 years for all lots is estimated to be between £4 - £6 million. The spend ranges are not committed spend ranges, and are therefore "only an estimation" of spend that could be made through the Framework Agreement.
