Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "2021-162 Events Delivery Partner" project was conducted by Ofgem, which is located at 10 South Colonnade, Canary Wharf, London, England. This procurement falls under the services category, specifically concerning hotel meeting and conference services, and is classified as an open procedure. The tender period closed on 10 January 2022, with the awarded contract being published on 3 February 2022. The contract, valued at £55,000, has a duration from 1 February 2022 to 31 December 2022 and involves providing event management services for Ofgem's staff conference, which aims to foster engagement across their London, Glasgow, and Cardiff locations.

This tender presents significant opportunities for event management agencies and businesses offering related services, particularly those specialising in conference logistics and cultural event organisation. Companies that excel in managing both in-person and digital events, especially in a context where health considerations encourage innovative solutions, would be especially well-suited to compete. The engagement of key leaders and external thought leaders during the conference creates a platform for networking and showcasing capabilities, making it an ideal chance for businesses looking to grow their presence in the events sector.

Notice Title

2021-162 Events Delivery Partner

Notice Description

This procurement is for an events management agency to support with the planning and successful delivery of event logistics and content for the Ofgem staff conference. Ofgem holds a conference for its staff every 1-2 years. The event aims to enable colleagues across its three locations (London, Glasgow, Cardiff) to come together to engage positively with Ofgem's organisational purpose and future vision. Previous conferences have been held both in-person and digitally and have successfully engaged colleagues in a variety of ways. For example, they have given a platform to senior leaders, brought in external thought-leaders for a dialogue with our people on key agendas, highlighted the experiences of the consumers we serve, enabled networking, celebrated success and contributed to a positive and upbeat organisational culture. Ofgem's last conference was held digitally in December 2020 as a result of Covid. While this was successful, Ofgem wishes to bring colleagues back together (depending on the changing Covid scenario) for an in-person conference in June 2022. Going forward colleagues will be expected to attend the office just 1-2 days a week, so this will be an important opportunity for colleagues across our locations to have a shared in-person experience.
