Summary of the contracting process

The Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) has completed the procurement process for securing a venue for the International Competition Network (ICN) Annual Conference 2025. The contract, awarded to Heritage Portfolio Ltd, pertains to the provision of services in the "Exhibition, fair and congress organisation services" category (CPV: 79950000). Specifically, this involves organising a welcome drinks reception in Mansfield Traquair, Scotland, on the evening of 6 May 2025 for up to 600 guests. The procurement followed the "limited" method, involving a competitive quotation process below the threshold. The key dates include the tender period ending on 26 June 2024, the contract period starting on 28 August 2024, and concluding on 12 May 2025. The total contract value is £24,700 GBP.

This tender offers growth opportunities for established businesses in the event planning and venue management industries, particularly those capable of handling large-scale corporate gatherings. Although the tender was not specifically suitable for SMEs or VCSEs, larger businesses with extensive resources and experience in high-profile event management would have found this to be a fitting opportunity. Securing such a contract can enhance a company's portfolio and reputation within the public procurement sector, potentially leading to further contracts and partnerships with government entities like the CMA.
