Summary of the contracting process

Historic England Limited has completed the procurement process for the "STA - 2025 Staff Conference London Venue," classified under hotel meeting and conference services. This contract, valued at GBP 15,175, pertains to the hire of a venue and associated costs for two in-person staff conference events scheduled on 30th September 2025 and 14th October 2025. The procurement, which followed a direct method through a single tender action below the threshold, finalised the tender period on 13th January 2025 and initiated the contract on 15th January 2025. Historic England Limited, based in Swindon, served as the buying organisation, and the contracting authority awarded the contract to Coin Street Community Builders, a Small and Medium-sized Enterprise (SME) located in London.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for business growth, particularly for SMEs specialising in event management, venue hire, and associated services such as catering and equipment rental. The targeted nature of the single tender action highlights the suitability for smaller businesses capable of delivering high-quality, specialised services within specific budget constraints. Businesses with expertise in organising large-scale corporate events, especially those with a focus on providing conference facilities and comprehensive support services, would find this procurement particularly advantageous.
