Exhibition stands

Tender description

Jisc is looking to establish a framework of multiple suppliers who can creatively and competitively design, build and supply stands and other exhibition structures (including modular stands) that match the culture and style of Jisc. The framework will be in lots to allow specialists in the market to offer their core business under the most appropriate lot. There will be multiple suppliers per lot. We welcome expressions of interest via the procurement portal as described in this notice. The purpose of this procurement process is to source and establish several different contractors with differing specialisms and products/services to offer Jisc irrespective of any individual event requirement. Jisc has a requirement for external exhibition contractors to who are experienced in stand-build design and construction. This framework covers all types of exhibition stands and contractor abilities; Lot 1 is specific to modular structures erected for use by exhibitors to a Jisc-led event. The framework will not be specific to a single event or series of events but act as a mechanism to deliver against a requirement for any event, meeting or conference. This framework will operate on a lot by lot basis appropriate to the event requirements of Jisc. Each lot under this framework will be considered as independent and focus on its specific area of expertise to meet Jisc’s requirements. Each lot will consist of multiple contractors per lot. Lot 1 core supply: hire and supply (build and breakdown) of modular structures, including hire of fixtures and fittings, and electrical requirements. Appointment onto the framework following this procurement process does not guarantee business. The framework will operate on a multi-supplier basis per lot; when a need arises the selection of the most suitable contractor will be following a call-off process (further information is available in the ITT document).
