Original Tender Description

The Ministry of Defence (MOD) requires a supplier to design and implement a national communications campaign to raise awareness of LGBT Restorative Measures for veterans affected by the ban on LGBT personnel in the Armed Forces (1967–2000). The campaign aims for maximum outreach, encouraging eligible veterans to apply for schemes closing on 12 December 2026. It specifically targets hard-to-reach LGBT veterans, including those reluctant to engage with the MOD due to historical experiences or mistrust. Suppliers must be able to commence work immediately and dedicate full-time resources. Submissions require a 1,000-word statement detailing relevant experience and GCS best practice, plus supporting evidence including a case study of a successful campaign targeting a hard-to-reach cohort, focusing on non-traditional engagement methods and measurable outcomes, especially for older cohorts not engaging with digital media. Expertise in trauma-informed and inclusive communications is also required. EOIs are due by 20 March 2026, with ITTs issued by 26 March 2026. Clarification questions for the notice are due by 11 March 2026, and for the ITT by 1 April 2026. Final tenders are due by 13 April 2026.

Tender Quality Score

This tender for a communications campaign is generally well-structured with clear objectives and requirements, though it lacks explicit evaluation criteria and details on document access. The focus on a specific, sensitive cohort is commendable.

Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance75/100

The tender adheres to general legal compliance by providing a clear CPV code, specifying an open competition procedure, and indicating no disputes. Deadlines are provided, though the EOI deadline might be considered tight given the complexity of the required submission. The absence of explicit mention of regulatory compliance beyond standard procurement practices is noted.

Potential for tight EOI deadline given submission requirements.
Clarity80/100

The description of the campaign's objective and target audience is clear and detailed. Requirements for the Expression of Interest (EOI) are well-documented, including specific content for the statement and supporting evidence. The criteria for downselection are mentioned but not explicitly detailed, which could be improved.

Evaluation and downselection criteria are not explicitly detailed.
Completeness70/100

Most basic information is present, including title, reference, organization, estimated value, contract duration, and start date. However, the tender documents themselves are not available for review, which significantly impacts completeness. The absence of a reveal date for the tender documents is also a gap.

Tender documents are not available for review.
Missing reveal date for tender documents.
Fairness85/100

The tender is an open competition, promoting fairness. The value is disclosed, and the criteria, while not fully detailed, appear objective in their focus on experience and capability. The process involves a downselection, which is standard, but the lack of explicit evaluation criteria could be a concern for some. Access to full documentation is currently limited.

Full tender documentation is not accessible.
Evaluation criteria are not explicitly detailed.
Practicality65/100

The tender specifies an e-submission process via the Defence Sourcing Portal for the ITT, which is positive. However, the initial EOI submission method is not explicitly stated as e-submission. The contract start date and duration are clear. Financing information is not detailed, and the lack of accessible tender documents hinders practical preparation.

Initial EOI submission method not explicitly stated as e-submission.
Financing information is not detailed.
Data Consistency90/100

Key fields such as title, reference, organization, value, and dates are populated. There are no reported disputes or suspensions. The dates provided for EOI submission, ITT issue, clarification windows, and final tender return are logically sequenced, indicating good data consistency.

Sustainability50/100

The tender does not explicitly mention green procurement, social aspects beyond the specific campaign focus, or innovation. It is not indicated as EU funded. While the campaign itself addresses a social issue, the procurement process itself lacks explicit sustainability criteria.

No explicit mention of green procurement.
No explicit mention of social or innovation criteria in the procurement process.

Strengths

Clear and well-defined campaign objectives and target audience.
Open competition procedure.
Detailed requirements for Expression of Interest.
Logical sequencing of key dates.

Concerns

Evaluation and downselection criteria are not explicitly detailed.
Lack of explicit sustainability criteria in the procurement process.
