## Summary

The College of Policing Limited has initiated a tender process for an "Events Management Solution (AccessPoint)" within the Facilities Management and Software Package industry category. The planning stage involves engaging potential suppliers with an end date for engagement set on January 26, 2024. The tender seeks a solution to manage onsite and online events, delegate registration, room scheduling, catering services, and more, to be operated in the UK. The buying organisation is based in Harrogate, England.

This public procurement opportunity for an Events Management Solution can be advantageous for businesses in the software development, event services, and training sectors. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprise (VCSE) organisations are well-suited to compete. The tender presents a chance for businesses to provide innovative services catering to the specific needs of the College of Policing, including managing events, accommodation, and security for delegates visiting their locations in England and Wales.

## Notice

The College of Policing is the professional body for all in policing in England and Wales. We have two sites where we host delegates and we generate revenue by hosting events, training courses and offer hotel accommodation. All onsite events have the option for delegates to access our onsite catering services. The solution is required to manage our onsite/online and hybrid meetings, events, and conferences to allow delegates to search and book. We also require scheduling of rooms and event spaces, allocation of people resources, event space setup, delegate registration, invoice tracking and payment. We require a booking form/ journey for delegates so they can self-book event or be booked on by someone else. The solution would need to manage tasks performed by our onsite reception, security, catering, and housekeeping teams. The solution should provide reporting analytics features for us to generate metrics for Management Information reporting on all aspects of our activity. All functionality should be auditable and utilise Role Based Access Control (RBAC). Data should be stored/ hosted and handled in the UK. All staff who have access to the system must be vetted at NPPV2 for non-privileged users and NPPV3 for privileged users. Please include 'Request for Information - Events Management Solution (AccessPoint)' your email subject header when you respond.
