Summary of the contracting process

VisitScotland is currently conducting a tender process for venue hire and associated services for the VisitScotland Expo 2022 and 2023, with a total budget of £270,000. The procurement is in the open stage, which allows all interested suppliers to submit proposals. Bids must be submitted electronically by 20 May 2021, with the evaluation set to begin on the same day. The contract involves two specific lots: one for Southern Scotland and another for Northern Scotland, indicating a regional focus within the UK.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses in the events and hospitality sector, especially those specialising in venue management, catering, and exhibition services. Companies with experience in hosting large-scale events or those that can offer comprehensive logistical solutions would be particularly well-suited to apply. The requirement for bidders to demonstrate a solid financial standing and adequate insurance coverage also implies that established firms with a proven track record in delivering similar projects have a competitive edge in this procurement process.
