This procurement falls under the fair and exhibition organisation services category and was conducted through an open procedure, aimed at businesses in the procurement stage. The contract will run from 1st April 2018 to 31st March 2019, with the successful vendor chosen from submissions received by the tender deadline of 20th October 2017, at a value of £135,000. This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses involved in exhibition management and event services. Companies specialising in stand construction, graphic design, and overall exhibition logistics would greatly benefit from participating in this procurement process. With a requirement for capable contractors to manage all aspects of the exhibition stand while maintaining its readiness, this contract can serve as a stepping stone for business growth in the seafood industry, which heavily relies on international trade. ## Notice Funded by statutory levy, payable by industry, the Sea Fish Industry Authority (Seafish) was established by the 1981 Fisheries Act. With circa 80% of the seafood consumed in the UK being imported and 60% of the domestic catch being exported it is clear that international trade is vital to all sectors of the industry. Seafish wish to appoint a full service exhibition contractor initially on a one year contract with an option to extend for a further two years. The successful bidder will be required to manage all aspects of the stand or pavilion at the exhibition from booking space and stand construction to production of graphics. The supplier will not be expected to man the stand during exhibition hours but will be expected to ensure that it is clean and fit for purpose during the exhibition. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/00f519d6-e073-47b6-9d5f-2088291b58c2 | | Notice type | Award Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Goods | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure (above threshold) | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Large | | All stages | Tender, Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 17 Aug 2018 | | Submission deadline | 20 Oct 2017 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 29 Mar 2018 | | Contract period | 31 Mar 2018 - 31 Mar 2019 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £150,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | £135,000 | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Active | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | SEA FISH INDUSTRY AUTHORITY | | Locality | EDINBURGH | | Post town | Edinburgh | | Postcode | EH7 4HS | | Country | Scotland | | ITL 1 | TLM Scotland | | ITL 2 | TLM1 East Central Scotland | | ITL 3 | TLM13 City of Edinburgh | | Local authority | City of Edinburgh | | Electoral ward | Leith Walk | | Westminster constituency | Edinburgh North and Leith | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | E2 PARTNERSHIP | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 79 - Business services: law, marketing, consulting, recruitment, printing and security ### Codes - 79956000 - Fair and exhibition organisation services ## Release History - 17 Aug 2018 at 11:31 - Award - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/00f519d6-e073-47b6-9d5f-2088291b58c2 - 15 Sep 2017 at 13:42 - TenderAmendment - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/ca79d16d-f1de-4274-8395-46070ec8b90a - 15 Sep 2017 at 13:38 - TenderAmendment - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/ca79d16d-f1de-4274-8395-46070ec8b90a - 15 Sep 2017 at 13:35 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/ca79d16d-f1de-4274-8395-46070ec8b90a ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/00f519d6-e073-47b6-9d5f-2088291b58c2 17th August 2018 - Awarded contract notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/ca79d16d-f1de-4274-8395-46070ec8b90a 15th September 2017 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/b6bad7b6-649f-4ac0-a91f-bac3d63eecce Tender specification document - http://www.seafish.org/about-seafish/tenders Tender information on Seafish website ## Notice URLs - http://www.seafish.org ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
