Summary of the contracting process

Bournemouth University, acting as the buying organisation, has successfully completed the public procurement process for the venue hire of the European Conference on Visual Perception (ECVP), scheduled to occur from 23rd to 27th August 2026. The procurement falls under the industry category of hotel, restaurant, and retail trade services, with a focus on service provision. Located in Poole, UK (region UKK24), the contract was awarded following a direct procurement method, below the competition threshold, and was signed on 20th May 2025. The process has reached the award stage, with Bh Live Enterprises Limited, based in Bournemouth, being the contracted supplier.

This recently completed procurement presents vital opportunities for businesses involved in venue hire and event management services. Large-scale service providers, particularly those situated in or near the UKK24 region, would find significant growth prospects in participating in similar tenders due to the sub-central government's preference for local suppliers. Companies specialising in hotel, restaurant, and retail services could also benefit from the visibility and networking opportunities that such prestigious events confer, potentially facilitating wider market access and increased business credibility.
