The supplier must provide the space fully set up so the university’s Recruitment team can deliver interactive student engagement activities. It must carry university graphics supplied by Teesside University and be delivered by the supplier to the required site. The space will not remain at a permanent location: it must be easily transportable between destinations around the UK. This is a services requirement covering exhibition equipment and exhibition stands, with delivery identified in the North East of England. It may suit businesses providing mobile event environments, promotional vehicles, exhibition stands or related event delivery services. The procurement has reached tender: Teesside University invited offers through an open procedure. The buyer set the submission deadline at 27 August 2026 at 16:00. The contract period is 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2028. Its estimated value is between £25,000 and £50,000, in total. The requirement is presented as a single service opportunity rather than separate lots. The university states that selection will be based solely on the criteria set out for the procurement. The tender is intended to cover the provision, preparation, delivery and transport of the engagement space for use by the Recruitment team at destinations around the UK. This opportunity suits a supplier able to design, supply or operate a professional mobile event environment rather than a fixed exhibition venue. Strong candidates are likely to have practical capability in vehicle-based or modular event spaces, exhibition stands, branded environments, logistics and event set-up. The work requires the space to be transportable, delivered to changing destinations and presented with university graphics, so reliable handling, installation and removal arrangements are important. Suppliers should be able to work with branding supplied by the university and support a recruitment-focused, interactive visitor experience. Teesside University identifies the requirement as potentially suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprises, making it relevant to specialist event, exhibition and promotional businesses. ## Notice To provide a vehicle/transportable event space, fully set up for the Recruitment team to deliver student engagement activities. The vehicle/transportable event space will have the correct university graphics (details provided by Teesside University) and be delivered to site by the company. The vehicle/transportable event space will not be on a permanent site and must be easily transportable to destinations around the UK. Additional information: The contracting authority considers that this contract may be suitable for economic operators that are small or medium enterprises (SMEs). However, any selection of tenderers will be based solely on the criteria set out for the procurement. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/7257a0a8-1304-4d04-a7ae-da49b2104ed9 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 13 Aug 2026 | | Submission deadline | 27 Aug 2026 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 1 Sep 2026 - 31 Aug 2028 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £50,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | Teesside University | | Locality | MIDDLESBROUGH | | Postcode area | Cleveland | | Postcode | TS1 3BX | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLC North East (England) | | ITL 2 | TLC3 Tees Valley | | ITL 3 | TLC32 South Teesside | | Local authority | Middlesbrough | | Electoral ward | Central | | Westminster constituency | Middlesbrough and Thornaby East | | Delivery location | TLC North East (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 39 - Furniture (incl. office furniture), furnishings, domestic appliances (excl. lighting) and cleaning products ### Codes - 39154000 - Exhibition equipment - 39154100 - Exhibition stands ## Release History - 13 Aug 2026 at 09:30 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/7257a0a8-1304-4d04-a7ae-da49b2104ed9 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/7257a0a8-1304-4d04-a7ae-da49b2104ed9 13th August 2026 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.delta-esourcing.com/tenders/UK-GB-Middlesbrough:-Off-Campus-student-engagement---interactive-experience/VSEE4844UU Please follow this link to view the notice. ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
