UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The University of the West of England procured exhibition stands for its UCAS events in 2027. This is a goods requirement covering the provision of a stand for events held in the United Kingdom. The buying organisation is the University of the West of England, based at its Frenchay Campus in Bristol. The requirement falls within exhibition stand supply, including the design, manufacture or provision of physical display structures used at recruitment or education events. The published scope identifies one requirement rather than a wider programme of goods or services. The procurement was arranged for the university’s UCAS event activity, so relevant businesses are exhibition stand manufacturers, suppliers and event-display specialists able to provide this type of physical event infrastructure.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. The University of the West of England used a direct below-threshold procedure without competition, with one lot. The contract was awarded to EVE PRODUCTS LIMITED and is active. The contract was signed on 29 July 2026 and runs from 30 July 2026 to 31 July 2026. Its value is £24,454.44 excluding VAT, or £29,345.33 including VAT. The contract covers exhibition stands for UCAS events in 2027. The recorded delivery location is the United Kingdom. The process did not involve a competitive evaluation: the supplier was selected through a direct award below the applicable threshold. The procurement category is goods, specifically exhibition stands.

This award is useful market evidence for exhibition stand businesses serving universities and student-recruitment events. The selected supplier is an SME, showing that the requirement can be delivered by a specialist small business rather than only by a large national contractor. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to supply exhibition stands suitable for UCAS or similar education events, understand the practical demands of temporary event displays, and deliver reliably within a tightly defined event window. Relevant capability may include stand manufacture or sourcing, event logistics, installation and removal, and producing a professional branded presentation, although the published requirement does not set out specific technical standards or accreditations. Suppliers should monitor this university’s future demand for comparable event-display goods.
