How to apply for the concession

Lot 1: The development of large format displays

The council is looking for advertising developers who:

• Are ideally members of Outsmart or can demonstrate that they comply with the principals detailed in the Outsmart Charter, 'standard of best practice'
• Operate an open book management process, no costs to the council
• Offer a full design, planning, engineering, sales and marketing service
• Can demonstrate relevant industry experience
• It should be noted that the council has experience of negotiating heads of terms for its own sites therefore this service is not within the scope of this framework.

Lot 2: The development of small format opportunities

The council is looking for advertising developers who:

• Can demonstrate relevant industry experience
• Can increase revenue streams for the Council from both traditional forms of advertising and from other innovative initiatives.

It should be noted that Salford City Council currently manages its roundabout and boundary scheme internally; therefore the City is not seeking a partner organisation at this time.

However small format providers are encouraged to apply for inclusion on the framework arrangement as the Council may change this internal delivery strategy during the five year period of this framework.

It needs to be noted that Local Authorities party to this agreement may choose to access the small format advertising opportunities through the Salford framework.
