## Summary

Nottingham Trent University is seeking bids for the "Provision of External Venue Hire, with Catering, for Nottingham Trent University ESIF Funded Events." This procurement falls under the services category, specifically classified as "Hotel meeting and conference services" (CPV 55120000). The project aims to fulfil the delivery needs of events funded by the European Structural Investment Fund and requires venues in the Derby/Derbyshire and Nottingham/Nottinghamshire areas that can provide catering. The tender is currently open and must be submitted by 21st April 2020, with a contract starting on 21st April 2020 and continuing until 21st March 2022. The total contract value is estimated at £80,000 and follows an open procedure for bidding.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses in the hospitality and event management sectors, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that specialise in venue provision and catering services. Given the expectation of limited facility availability at Nottingham Trent University due to ongoing teaching commitments, businesses equipped to supply external venues that meet specific requirements are well-positioned to compete. Engaging with this opportunity could lead to further contracts, given the nature of university events and the continued demand for venue hire services.

## Notice

Nottingham Trent University is in receipt of funding from the European Structural Investment Fund (ESIF). The support offered through the ESIF funded projects is delivered via a variety of formats which will be delivered both at Nottingham Trent University and offsite. Nottingham Trent University has the facilities to hold project events at its three campuses. However, due to teaching requirements, there is limited availability of the required facilities and therefore a framework of external venues is required in order to meet the delivery needs of the projects. Venues must be located in the Derby/Derbyshire, and Nottingham/Nottinghamshire areas. Venues must be able to provide catering for the events. Further information is available by expressing an interest in the project and downloading the tender documents.
