Summary of the contracting process

The contracting process for "PACTS Sponsorship (25-26)" was conducted by National Highways, a public authority under the central government based in Guildford, UK. This procurement falls under the services category and is directly awarded to the Parliamentary Advisory Council for Transport Safety (PACTS), an organisation located in London, UK. The contract, valued at GBP 18,000 gross, was signed on 31st July 2025 and is set to run from 8th August 2025 until 31st March 2026. The procurement method employed was below the threshold without competition, focusing on providing sponsorship for PACTS to facilitate two key road safety conferences, ensuring National Highways' involvement and branding in these events.

This opportunity allows businesses involved in conference organisation, event management, or those focused on road safety and transport to engage with a central government body. The procurement does not require a competitive bidding process, which may be particularly appealing for enterprises with a robust niche in public safety or transport safety sectors. Large organisations that have the capacity to influence and participate in high-profile safety events while handling substantial administrative support such as PACTS would find this type of tender particularly advantageous for strategic partnership development and expanding their visibility in government-affiliated projects.
