The procurement process is initiated by Bath and North East Somerset Council for the project titled "Meeting, Training and Conference Venue Hire." This tender falls under the "Hotel services" industry category and targets locations within the South West region of the United Kingdom. The current stage of procurement is the Award phase, with a total value of £450,000. The contract period spans from 1st January 2018 to 1st January 2020. The procurement method employed follows an open procedure, with the tender originally published on 28th June 2017, and the deadline for submissions having occurred on 1st September 2017.

This Framework agreement creates significant opportunities for businesses involved in venue hiring services, particularly those that can cater to training, conference, and event functions. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) as well as voluntary and community sector enterprises (VCSEs) would be well-positioned to compete, especially those with suitable facilities in Bath and the surrounding areas.
