The film and television collections cared for by the BFI National Archive encompass the entire history of cinema, include educational, broadcast, amateur and other creative content held on a wide range of videotape formats\. To help achieve these objectives this framework agreement invites bidders to propose a range of videotape \(& audio\) digitisation services, along with costs, which can be drawn upon to augment technical capacity within the BFI National Archive's conservation teams\.
