Working with procurement and accessibility
How do procurement, accessibility and security fit into the workflow?
Procurement: scopes of work align to Crown Commercial Service frameworks, NHS Shared Business Services vehicles, GLA-aligned panels and London local authority procurement codes. Performance specifications, deliverable structure and government property handling baked into the engagement scope.
Accessibility: WCAG 2.1 AA delivered as the standard package with captions, transcripts, audio description and accessible player embed under the Public Sector Bodies Accessibility Regulations. Per-language adaptation for agencies operating under equality and inclusion duties. Accessibility requirements built into the brief, not treated as a finishing step.
Security: editorial workspace with controlled access lists, audit logging of every file access, defensible per-asset audit trail captured against the possibility of FOI, ombudsman or ministerial briefing requests.

Frequently asked questions
Does Shootsta work with public sector agencies in London and the UK?
Yes. UK central government, NHS trusts, devolved administrations and London local authorities all run video programs that Shootsta is well suited to. Citizen-facing services, workforce training, recruitment and leadership comms are the surfaces we work on most frequently.
How does accessibility delivery work for UK government video?
The Public Sector Bodies Accessibility Regulations require WCAG 2.1 AA compliance for digital content including video. We deliver open captions, WebVTT or SRT closed captions, full transcripts, audio description tracks where required, alt-text for thumbnails and accessible player embed code as the standard package. Per-language caption translation handled through our localisation pipeline for agencies operating under equality and inclusion duties.
What about procurement?
We work within Crown Commercial Service frameworks, NHS Shared Business Services vehicles, GLA-aligned panels and London local authority procurement codes where applicable. Scopes of work align to the procurement vehicle: performance work statement, deliverable structure, government property handling and audit-trail requirements all baked into the engagement. Agencies new to video procurement should talk to us early to map the right vehicle.
How do you handle sensitive footage and Official-Sensitive material?
Editorial workspace with controlled access lists, audit logging of every file access, no public cloud sharing of restricted footage. For Official-Sensitive content we maintain defensible audit trails per asset against the possibility of FOI, ombudsman or inspector general inspection.
Can you cover NHS trust comms and clinical training?
Yes. NHS trust internal comms, clinical training video, patient information video and recruitment content all run through the same workflow. Patient-identifiable footage handled with NHS Information Governance requirements and Caldicott principles. Most NHS trust video programs route through trust comms and the in-trust Information Governance function.
How is pricing structured for public sector video?
Shootsta runs on annual packages: 12, 24 or 36 finished videos a year. Most UK agencies running active programs run on 24 to 36-video packages covering citizen-facing services, workforce training and leadership communications. Talk to us and we will share specific pricing for your volume and procurement requirements.
