Summary of the contracting process

The Slough Borough Council, through SE Shared Services, is seeking a professional organiser for the "Running Event Organisation and Operating Services." This contract, classified under sports-event organisation services, is in the tender stage and is set to conclude on 27th March 2020.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in event management, particularly those experienced in organising sporting events. Companies with expertise in logistics, participant management, and compliance with athletic regulations would be best positioned to succeed.
