Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process pertains to the award of a contract for "Costumed Interpretation Services" by Bath and North East Somerset Council, primarily categorised under recreational, cultural, and sporting services. The tender, identified as DN530530, has reached the award stage as of 4th March 2021. The contract, valued at £117,500, is designed to provide services at the Roman Baths located in Bath, UK. This procurement was initiated as a limited process due to the COVID-19 pandemic, using an award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition, with an extension granted to the existing contractor following their inability to perform during the pandemic-related closure.

This contract opportunity can foster business growth for companies specialising in cultural and recreational services, particularly those with expertise in costume interpretation and theatre. Businesses equipped to deliver dynamic, engaging services in heritage settings, especially those familiar with working under public procurement frameworks, will find this tender relevant. Given that the awarding entity is a local authority, collaborations with small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that demonstrate innovative approaches in cultural engagement could be particularly advantageous.

Procurement Information

Due to the COVID19 pandemic, the existing contractor was unable to perform the contract for 10 months due to the closure of the Roman Baths.

A tender exercise will be carried out using an Open Tender procedure during this extension period. This is a Supplier Relief extension.
