Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process initiated by the North West Ambulance Service NHS Trust seeks a supplier for venue management services within the North West area, announced on 20 May 2025. This process, currently in the planning stage, is set to be managed under a selective framework, with a projected procurement value of £2,942,000. The services fall under the hotel meeting and conference services category, and the contract is expected to run from 1 June 2025 to 31 May 2028, with potential extensions until 31 May 2029. This opportunity targets suppliers who can accommodate the specific venue hire needs for training and meetings, and it requires a competitive approach given its classification as a service above the threshold.

For businesses specializing in venue management, particularly those capable of providing comprehensive hotel meeting and conference services, this tender represents a significant opportunity. Companies that thrive on managing large-scale venue logistics and have a robust service delivery structure in the North West region would be well-positioned to compete. As this procurement falls under central government authority, it offers a prestigious engagement opportunity for businesses looking to expand their market share and establish long-term partnerships with the NHS Trust.
