UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Department for Business & Trade procured event services for stand space at WHX Dubai 2027. The stand will support Healthcare UK’s presence at the event and the UK Government’s healthcare export agenda by showcasing UK healthcare expertise. It is intended to promote healthcare exports, highlight support available to NHS organisations seeking international partnerships and commercial opportunities, and help the NHS realise global business opportunities. The requirement covers the joint Healthcare UK programme and is focused on participation at the Dubai event. The buying organisation is the Department for Business & Trade, a central government department. The relevant service category is event services (CPV 79952000), delivered in Dubai.

This procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. The Department for Business & Trade used a direct award below the threshold without competition. One service lot was awarded to the Association of British HealthTech Industries (ABHI). The award is active. The contract was signed on 22 July 2026 and runs from 22 July 2026 to 28 January 2027. Its value is £69,643.90 excluding VAT, or £70,523.50 including VAT. The contract is below the applicable threshold. The requirement was evaluated through the direct-award route rather than a competitive tender, and the published outcome identifies ABHI as the selected supplier for the stand space and associated event services.

This procurement shows demand from the Department for Business & Trade for specialist event delivery supporting UK healthcare exports and international business development. Suppliers best placed for a future requirement of this type would understand healthcare trade promotion, NHS-facing commercial activity and the needs of UK health technology organisations seeking overseas partnerships. Credible competitors would need the capability to plan and deliver a high-profile exhibition presence in Dubai, coordinate a joint government and industry programme, and present healthcare expertise clearly to international audiences. Experience in event services, exhibition stand delivery, stakeholder coordination and international healthcare or health technology markets would be relevant. A strong supplier would also be able to support commercial engagement rather than provide stand infrastructure alone.
