## Summary

The Christie NHS Foundation Trust procured a professional conference organiser (PCO) for the PSOGI 2029 Conference. The requirement covers conference organisation and hotel meeting and conference services (CPV 55120000). The buyer is The Christie NHS Foundation Trust, based in Manchester. The procurement is focused on delivering the named international conference rather than a general event-management service.

The procurement is complete and a contract was awarded to World Span on 7 October 2026. The award value is £89,430 excluding VAT (£107,316 including VAT). The contract period runs from 19 October 2026 to 31 March 2030. It was a below-threshold, limited competition, with one lot. Three bids were received and all three reached the final stage; all final-stage bids came from small and medium-sized enterprises. The award information identifies hotel meeting and conference services as the contracted category.

This award demonstrates demand from The Christie NHS Foundation Trust for a conference organiser able to deliver a specialist professional congress and coordinate hotel meeting and conference services. Suppliers seeking to compete for a similar requirement should be credible across both event planning and venue-related delivery, with the capacity to manage a substantial conference programme over a multi-year contract. The competition attracted three final-stage bids, all from small and medium-sized enterprises, showing that smaller providers can compete for this scale of specialist conference work. Experience organising professional conferences and coordinating accommodation, meeting space and related services would be directly relevant to the buyer’s requirement.
