What is being bought

Cantium provides tailored ICT, HR and Finance services to its customers across the UK within the Education, Local Authority, Health and the Private sector. As a LATCo we are proud of our Public Sector heritage, which has given us a foundation in business delivery and infrastructure insight. This uniquely enables us to drive innovation and progressive practices within the Marketing Communications function rooted in our sector insight. Cantium Business Solutions Limited is looking to appoint a Public Relations Agency (PR) to assist in driving its growth ambitions forwards as part of the communications mix. The contract is for a maximum length of 36 months based on an initial fixed 12-month period, after which a 3-months break clause will apply to the balance of the term. The contract will expire in its entirety after 36 months or earlier if the break clause is applied. The estimated total contract value based on a 36-month term is approximately £250,000. This is an indicative value of expected expenditure and not a committed spend. Spend will be based on buyer need only.
