Summary of the contracting process

The Department for International Trade (DIT) has completed a procurement process for the "GESS Dubai 2020" project, which involved purchasing exhibition space and management services within the industry category of exhibition, fair, and congress organisation services. The contract, valued at £37,500, was awarded on 5 December 2019, with the contract period running from 25 February 2020 to 27 February 2020. This procurement followed a direct method and was classified under a single tender action because it was below the specified threshold. The purchasing was carried out in locations including the United Kingdom and other regions such as the British Overseas Territories and Europe.

This tender presents a valuable opportunity for businesses in the event management and exhibition sectors to expand their reach and enhance their service offerings. While this specific contract was awarded to the British Education Suppliers Association, similar future opportunities may emerge for various suppliers of exhibition services. Companies that specialise in event management, logistics, and related service areas would particularly benefit from engaging with DIT and similar organisations in future procurement activities.
