OJEU - F1 - Prior Information Notice
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 events, festivals, community activities and civic functions delivered across the Renfrewshire Council area. This is a services procurement covering event support rather than a single event, so it may be relevant to businesses that provide goods, services or combined packages for public and community events. The council is based in Paisley and the expected delivery area is Renfrewshire. The planned scope is broad, allowing for a range of event-related requirements rather than identifying one specific type of event production, supply or support. The procurement is planned as one lot.

This procurement is at the planning stage: Renfrewshire Council has set out an intention to establish the framework but has not invited tenders. The expected approach is a multi-supplier framework, with one planned lot covering the event-related goods and services required across the council area. The council expects a further notice to be published on 1 April 2027. A prior-information questionnaire has been issued as part of the early market-planning activity, allowing interested businesses to consider the proposed scope before the procurement reaches the tender stage. The process is covered by the Government Procurement Agreement and is being planned under the 2014 EU public procurement legal basis.

The framework is likely to suit event-sector suppliers with the capacity to support a varied programme of festivals, community activities, civic functions and other council events in Renfrewshire. Relevant businesses may include providers of event equipment, event supplies, production support, venue or site services, and other specialist event services, provided these fall within the eventual scope. A multi-supplier arrangement could suit both established event companies able to support recurring public-sector requirements and specialist firms that contribute a defined service or product alongside other framework suppliers. Businesses should use the planning period to review their ability to deliver across the council area, understand the range of event environments involved and prepare clear evidence of relevant event experience, operational capacity and reliable service delivery.
