## Summary

UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) procured hotel meeting and conference services for an event. The requirement was for event-related services, with delivery in the United Kingdom. UK Shared Business Services Ltd managed the procurement on UKRI’s behalf. The awarded supplier, The RCP Regent’s Park Limited, provides the hotel and conference services. The published scope identifies the service category but gives no further breakdown of event facilities, accommodation, catering or other operational requirements. This is a single-lot service procurement, rather than a purchase of goods or construction work.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to The RCP Regent’s Park Limited. UKRI used a below-threshold limited competition. The contract was signed on 6 October 2026 and runs from 26 to 29 October 2026. Its stated value is £48,690 excluding VAT, or £58,428 including VAT. There is one lot, and the award is active. The procurement information does not set out an evaluation formula or explain how competing offers were assessed.

This award shows UKRI’s demand for hotel meeting and conference services to support an event, delivered over a short, concentrated period. A credible competitor for a similar requirement would need to provide suitable meeting and conference facilities and the operational capacity to support an event in the United Kingdom. The selected supplier is a large events business, demonstrating that an established provider was successful, although the procurement does not specify any particular accreditation, venue features, staffing levels or event format. Suppliers with relevant hotel or conference operations and the ability to accommodate UKRI’s event needs are the closest fit for this buyer’s requirement.
