Description

Framework Guidelines
Please note, if you are one of the successful bidders and are placed onto the framework, this does not guarantee regular work. There is no guaranteed expenditure under this agreement.
We may at LJMU discretion appoint up to five suppliers onto the Photography Services Framework dependent on skills, expertise, experience, and technical efficiency.
The framework agreement will run for three years and will include an option to extend on a 1+1 basis, meaning a potential maximum duration of five years. Extension will be subject to satisfactory performance and spend levels through the framework agreement.
Unless a Mini Competition is carried out, the prices offered by the Tenderer to LJMU for Services under this framework shall be the prices listed in Part 3 paragraph 3.2 of this document.

Scope of Requirement
It is the role of the Corporate Communications team to tell the story of how LJMU transforms lives and futures and places our students at the heart of everything we do. We are a professional communications team responsible for developing and delivering effective multi-platform communications activity to our students, staff and diverse range of external stakeholders.
We do this using our expertise across internal communications, media relations, social media, brand and design, website, public affairs, stakeholder relations and event management. The team has overall responsibility for LJMU's visual identity and tone of voice to ensure that our communications are clear, consistent and impactful.
Our team is at the heart of our students' journey at LJMU; from organising their welcome and engaging with them throughout their time at university, to enabling them to celebrate their achievements at graduation and staying connected as alumni.
LJMU is a community of truly extraordinary staff and students; they are the people who make LJMU the unique institution it is and it is our job to tell their stories every day. We are looking for photographers who can help us bring these stories to life through engaging imagery.
It is the intention to create a framework agreement for Photography Services for LJMU. This scope of works outlines the requirements for the provision of a photography framework with multiple suppliers.
The total estimated spend over the duration of the agreement is £100,000, all projects shall be priced and agreed by LJMU before work commence.
