## Summary

Liverpool City Council has concluded the procurement process for the "River of Light 2024 - Security & Stewarding" contract. This tender falls under the industry categories of “Structures and parts of structures” and “Event services” and pertains to the North West region of the United Kingdom. The procurement was carried out using a selective method through a restricted procedure. The contract value is £74,632 and spans from 1st October 2024 to 1st April 2025. The awarding stage was reached on 1st October 2024, and the festival is scheduled to run from 25th October to 5th November 2024, with daily activities between 5pm and 9pm.

This tender provides significant growth opportunities for businesses involved in event security and stewarding. Although ultimately awarded to Paramount Stewarding & Security Ltd, other companies in the event services and structural support sectors would find similar tenders to be beneficial for expanding their portfolios, particularly those with experience in managing high-traffic public events. Companies that can offer specialised event management services or have previous experience with large-scale public festivities are well suited to compete in future tenders of this nature.
