Three valid tenders were received to promote the National Inventory of Architectural Heritage publications. They were from: QMP, Bates Ireland — now Hunter-Redcell and Ican. The successful tenderer was Bates Ireland. Although its tender was not the lowest it was considered to be the most economically advantageous.

The purpose of the contract is to advertise architectural heritage surveys as they are published on a county by county basis by designing press and radio adverts and placing them with relevant local media.
