Stream UK’s on COI’s re-launched Live Events Roster

Thursday, December 3rd, 2009

The Central Office of Information (COI) has radically overhauled its framework (roster) of live event agencies and Stream UK were top scorers for webcasting.

COI’s Live Events team thoroughly evaluated over 1300 individual applications and reviewed thousands of CVs and case studies during the review. The successful agencies were selected on the basis of their proven expertise and experience and Stream UK have been chosen to provide live and on-demand webcasting services until 2013.

The list allows agencies to compete for government and public sector work without the requirement for a lengthy procurement process for every contract and annually COI Live Events commission more than 300 projects from its roders for a total value exceeding £12m.

Simon Hughes, Director of Live Events, said:

“We had a fantastic response for this review and I really appreciate all the hard work that everyone involved had to put in.

We’ve extended the range of suppliers on the framework in order to both focus our procurement processes and give our clients greater choice and flexibility.

My team are really looking forward to working with the new framework agencies in what will be a challenging period. We’re very confident that we have the best mix of talent to help us devise great event solutions for our clients over the next few years.”
