## Summary

The Foreign Commonwealth and Development Office has awarded a contract for event staff services for the British Embassy in Brussels, valued at £135,000. The procurement, classified under the supply services of personnel, will cover a contract duration of two years with the option to extend for an additional two years. The contract commenced on 1st August 2022 and runs until 30th June 2024. This open procurement process, which is now complete, aimed to source qualified chefs, waiters, bar staff, and various other staff as needed for specific events.

This contract presents a valuable opportunity for businesses in the hospitality and event management sectors, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that can offer flexible staffing solutions. Companies that specialise in the provision of temporary staff and those experienced in event support services would be well-placed to compete, especially given the potential for ongoing renewals and the diverse range of service requirements highlighted in the contract.
