## Summary

Cardiff University has completed the procurement process for the "UEB Support" project, which falls under the Event Services category (CPV: 79952000). The procurement involved inquiry, design, facilitation, and follow-up for away days and events, along with ad hoc support for the Vice-Chancellor's initiatives. Located in Cardiff, the contract was awarded through a limited procurement method, specifically a negotiation without prior publication. The contract, valued at £200,000, was signed on 5th July 2024 and was awarded to Gameshift, an SME based in Ringshall, United Kingdom. The application of this process falls outside the scope of the typical directive, following Regulation 32 due to technical reasons.

This tender provides significant opportunities for businesses specialising in event planning and facilitation, particularly those capable of providing bespoke support services for high-profile organisational leaders. Companies focused on strategic consultancy, team-building activities, and large-scale event management could find this sector especially beneficial. Familiarity with academic environments and delivering tailored events for educational institutions will be advantageous for competitors seeking similar contracts in the future. The role of Gameshift in securing this contract demonstrates the potential growth for SMEs in this industry, highlighting the importance of niche expertise.
