Summary of the contracting process

JISC, a sub-central government public authority based in Bristol, is the contracting authority for a procurement process focused on providing "Complete Exhibitor Packages" for their key events. The procurement, identified under the procedure ID "Proc3018", was initiated in the form of an open competitive flexible procedure, which included a framework agreement. The process transitioned from the planning phase, initiated in September 2025, through to the award phase, with the award notice published on 12th June 2026. The procurement process aimed to select suppliers capable of delivering high-quality, sustainable exhibition stands for JISC’s events across the UK, with a total contract value of £456,000 over a potential contract period lasting until June 2030 including renewal options.

This contract presented a valuable opportunity for suppliers in the exhibition and events industry, particularly those specialising in exhibition stand setups. The procurement was structured to enhance business growth opportunities for SMEs, as evidenced by three SMEs being selected to supply under this framework: ALROSE PRODUCTIONS LTD, NIMLOK LIMITED, and OPEN EXHIBITIONS LIMITED. The process emphasized competency, experience, and user engagement as key evaluation criteria, making it an attractive prospect for businesses that excel in creating impactful event environments. Suppliers were required to demonstrate their ability to deliver cost-effective solutions while maintaining industry standards and fostering strong collaborative relationships with JISC to ensure effective delivery of high-impact events.
