Summary of the contracting process

The Department for Business and Trade (DBT) has recently completed a public procurement process for the construction of a stand at IDEX 2025 in Abu Dhabi, scheduled for 17-21 February 2025. The contract, classified under the industry category of Event Services (CPV code 79952000), was awarded through a single tender action (below threshold), with a total value of £90,012. Key dates include the tender end date on 28 December 2024 and the contract period from 28 January 2025 to 21 February 2025. This procurement process is now in the Award stage, with the contract awarded to ADS Group Limited, a large-scale supplier based in the UK.

This tender represents an excellent opportunity for businesses involved in event services and stand construction to grow their portfolios, especially those looking to break into international markets such as the Middle East. While a single tender action was used in this instance, similar future opportunities might be available through more competitive procurement methods. SMEs, in particular, should take note as the suitability criteria highlight opportunities specific to their scale. Engaging with such tenders can help businesses gain visibility and establish strong market presence.
