The Department of Canadian Heritage (PCH) is seeking to establish a contract for professional services as defined in Annex “A”, Statement of Work, for the following period: contract award to March 31st, 2015. This contract is to secure professional services to conduct a Study of the Economic Impact of Audiovisual Treaty Coproductions and Co-Ventures in Canada. The objective of this study is to provide a detailed analysis of audiovisual treaty coproduction and co-venture activity in Canada, and to demonstrate their economic impact on the Canadian economy. Audiovisual treaty coproduction economic impact data, including gross domestic product (GDP) impact, employment figures, and foreign investment levels, will serve to measure the performance of Canada’s Policy on Audiovisual Treaty Coproduction. Results of this study will help Canadian Heritage to establish economic indicators and benchmarks to assess the performance of Canada’s Policy on Audiovisual Treaty Coproduction as the policy is being implemented through Canada’s current negotiations with foreign countries, using a new model treaty. In order to put the size of treaty coproduction’s impact into perspective, audiovisual treaty coproduction economic data will be compared against Canadian audiovisual “domestic” production economic data. Because detailed production data are unavailable for co-ventures, their impact will be assessed in more qualitative terms based on industry stakeholder survey results conducted by Canadian Heritage and other sources.
