The exact broadcast services, facilities and personnel provided by those suppliers awarded a Framework Agreement will vary in each engagement. These services and facilities are typically delivered as ‘wet-hire’ arrangements operated by personnel provided by the supplier, although each engagement can contain a small element of dry-hire operated by personnel provided by the BBC. The requirements covered under this Framework are exclusively television / audio visual. Out of scope are the requirements for Radio OBs, Satellite News Gathering Vehicles and Systems Integration.
