## Summary

The Department for International Trade has completed the procurement process for their participation at the National Retail Federation The Big Show retail tech event in 2024. This event, the largest retail tech fair in the USA, will see participation from over 6,200 international companies. The procurement falls under the 'Event services' category and is valued at GBP 23,000. The procurement method for this tender was a direct single tender action (below threshold), resulting in a contract period from 12th September 2024 to 31st January 2025.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses specialising in event services, particularly those with experience in large-scale international trade events. Although the procurement method was direct, businesses can benefit from understanding the requirements and standards expected by the Department for International Trade. Large-scale companies, rather than SMEs or VCSEs, are more suited to engage with and meet the contractual expectations for such significant events. Participating in similar tenders can enhance visibility and open doors for future collaborations with government departments and large international trade organisations.
