## Summary

The National Audit Office has completed a public procurement process titled "Careers Fairs Logistical Support 2024/2025" within the event services industry category. This contract involves providing logistical support for up to 20 university careers fairs across the UK. The award, procured through a competitive quotation method, was granted to A101 Solutions (London) Ltd. The procurement stage is complete, with the contract period running from August 1, 2024, to July 31, 2025. The tender's value is £19,020 GBP, and the project supports the delivery and setup of recruitment stands and materials at various university locations.

This tender offers significant opportunities for companies specialising in event logistics and support services to engage with a high-profile client. Businesses well-suited to compete for similar contracts include SMEs capable of managing multi-location event setups, particularly those focusing on educational and recruitment events. The project aligns with logistics companies' goals to expand their portfolios by showcasing consistent delivery and operational efficiency across multiple sites, thereby enhancing their reputation and business growth potential.

## Notice

We use an events company to assist us with travelling to each university careers fair so they can set up our stands and the various recruitment materials (reports, brochures, giveaways). We attend universities all across the UK and attend anywhere between 15 - 20 careers fairs during the milkround period with the aim of attracting a diverse range of students to our trainee schemes. We work with A101 Solutions who ensure our stand material is delivered on time and set up in advance ahead of our representatives arriving at the venue. We often have 2-3 events in different locations across on the UK on the same day and to have someone set up on our behalf is key to our success at careers fairs.
