The BBC has unveiled a tender for its mobile messaging/social media feed console framework, valued at up to £2.2m, which looks to increase interaction with the audience.

According to the tender, the BBC is seeking to appoint a single supplier that can provide PRS (Premium Rate Services) and non-PRS mobile telephone services to enable audience interactivity and also to allow productions teams to interact with the audience using these mobile telephone services and other social media channels through the provision of an easy to use web application suited to the live production environment.

Expected scope is £500,000 - £530,000 per year for two years, with an option to extend twice for a further 12 months each at the BBC's discretion plus a possible £80,000 for future development, support and upgrades that may be outside the scope of the core requirements.

The time limit for receipt of tenders or requests to participate is 2pm on 13 January 2014, and it is expected that a maximum of 10 operators will be invited to tender or to participate.
