About this contract

71 Commonwealth nations and territories are expected to participate in the XXII Commonwealth Games, which is one of the world's largest multi-sport events, bringing together over 4 000 of the world's elite athletes every 4 years, in an 11-day festival of sport and culture. Events will take place from 27.7.2022 to 7.8.2022 in venues across Birmingham and the West Midlands. London's Olympic velodrome will also be utilised. The principal role of the host broadcasting services supplier is producing and distributing high quality TV and radio coverage of the games to rights holding broadcasters (RHBs) and on to a global audience. The supplier will develop detailed production plans and requirements for each sport, and deliver the international TV and radio feeds and multi-channel service (a combination of a selection of live and delayed content) to RHBs. Amongst other content, coverage will also include medal ceremonies and presentations, daily highlights and news feeds. Further information on the authority's requirements can be found in its descriptive document available at www.delta-esourcing.com In order to maximise value for money, the Birmingham 2022 Organising Committee is undertaking this procurement collaboratively with CGF Partnerships Ltd with a view to awarding an agreement that will include options to extend the agreement to cover provision of host broadcasting services to the 2026 and 2030 editions of the Commonwealth Games. The host cities for the 2026 and 2030 editions are not as yet identified. The current intention is to let the services opportunity on the basis of a host broadcasting master services agreement (the 'MSA') to be entered into between CGF Partnerships Ltd and the successful Tenderer, and a Organising Committee Services Agreement ('OCSA') between the Organising Committee and the successful tenderer. The first OCSA will be with the Birmingham Organising Committee for the 2022 Commonwealth Games Ltd ('Birmingham 2022') for the purposes of providing host broadcasting services for the Birmingham 2022 Games. However, in the event that the Birmingham 2022 Organising Committee and CGFP determine that there is insufficient economic benefit in letting an agreement with options to extend for the 2026 and 2030 games, the authority reserves the right to award a services contract directly between Birmingham 2022 and the successful tenderer for the 2022 games only. It is estimated that the MSA value range will be 60 000 000 to 90 000 000 GBP, dependent on whether the extension options are exercised. It is estimated that the OCSA contract value range for the Birmingham 2022 Games will be 20 000 000 GBP to 30 000 000 GBP. These costs include HB accommodation, catering, transport and those relating to ancillary equipment including broadcast power, overlay at venues (compound cabins and camera platforms) and contract variations.
