Summary of the contracting process

Renfrewshire Council is considering a multi-supplier framework for event-related goods and services. The framework is intended to support the delivery of events, festivals, community activities and civic functions across the Renfrewshire Council area. This is a services procurement, covering event organisation and related supply requirements rather than a single event or venue project. The stated classification is CPV 79952000, for event services. The buying organisation is Renfrewshire Council, based in Paisley. The arrangement is intended to provide support for a range of council activities, so its scope is broader than one fixed programme and may suit suppliers offering different event-related services or goods within a coordinated framework arrangement.

This procurement is at the planning stage: Renfrewshire Council has stated an intention to establish the framework, but has not issued an invitation to tender. The expected approach is a multi-supplier framework, with one planned lot covering the event-related goods and services described. The council expects a subsequent notice to be published on 11 September 2026. That is an indicative future notice date, not a deadline for responses. The framework is covered by the Government Procurement Agreement. The planned arrangement is for services supporting events, festivals, community activities and civic functions across the council area, with the detailed requirements to be developed before the competition reaches the market.

This will be relevant to businesses that provide event-related goods or services and can support public-sector events, festivals, community activities and civic functions. A multi-supplier framework is likely to suit specialist providers that want to work across a varied programme rather than deliver only one event. Potentially suitable businesses include event production and management companies, event infrastructure and equipment suppliers, entertainment and programme providers, and other firms supporting the practical delivery of civic or community events. Suppliers should use the planning period to understand the council’s likely range of requirements, consider how their services could fit within a framework of multiple providers, and prepare evidence of relevant event delivery capability and capacity across Renfrewshire.
