## Summary

The Police & Crime Commissioner for Sussex awarded a contract to Pangdean Farm for organising the Long Service and Chief Constable Commendation Ceremonies. The contract involves using the Pangdean Barn venue, offering exclusive use to maintain privacy and security for attendees over a four-year period, starting from 5th August 2026 and ending on 20th July 2030. This procurement process, carried out via direct award, was finalised under the 2023 legal framework for a total contract value of £156,000. The procurement falls under the services category and is registered as below the competition threshold, reflecting a complete status in Lewes, United Kingdom.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in event planning and venue management, particularly those capable of handling high-profile and secure events. Although the contract has been awarded to Pangdean Farm, similar tenders in the future could benefit small and medium enterprises (SMEs) looking to provide specialised services in seminar organisation. Businesses with expertise in exclusive venue provision and with experience handling events for government entities could find such opportunities lucrative for growth and expansion in the public sector service industry.
