Advertising Services

As part of the New Zealand Government Procurement Reform Programme a Professional Services Centre of Expertise (CoE) has been established within the Market Services Branch of the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment. The Advertising Services category is an integral part of this CoE, and it is intended that All-of-Government (AoG) contract(s) for Advertising Services are implemented in Quarter One of 2013.

By harnessing the collective buying power of over 200 State sector agencies, local authorities and over 2,500 schools, government has positioned itself as a ‘customer of choice’ and is able to achieve substantial cost savings. Below is an outline of the project scope.

 

Advertising Services

The scope of this AoG contract includes most specialist areas of advertising:

  • Media – Strategy, Planning and Buying;
  • Creative and Production Services; and
  • Client Services – Strategy and Project Management.

 

Out of Scope is Design (in terms of standalone design services for example, designing a new brand logo), and Market Research (in terms of standalone market research is out of scope for this contract. However where Market Research is part of the provision of a media, creative or client service this can be delivered by a successful provider), Print, Public Relations, and Digital services (as covered specifically by the Department of Internal Affairs Common Web Services syndicated panel).

 

Timeframes (updated 7 February 2013)

  • March – September 2012: data gathering, analysis, strategy and RFP development and sign off.
  • 9 October 2012: Request for Proposal issued.
  • 6 November 2012: Request for Proposal closes at 3pm.
