Event Management & Delivery Framework

Location

Description

The Event Management Framework (EMF) is being developed by the Department for Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) to provide a modern, flexible and accessible route to market for government event requirements. This framework has been designed to reflect how the UK events sector operates and to ensure departments and arm’s-length bodies can procure agency-led event services in a consistent and structured way. This Framework is being procured under the Light Touch Regime, allowing for a more flexible and proportionate approach aligned to the structure of the UK events sector. The framework will operate through mini-competitions, with scope for direct award where appropriate. Lot 1 - National Public-Facing Events Covers end-to-end support for large-scale, high-profile national events. Lot 2 - Medium to Large Indoor Events Covers planning, design, and delivery of structured indoor events. Lot 3 - Presence at Third-Party Events Covers planning and delivery of government involvement within external events. Lot 4 - Small Events Covers delivery of small-scale or short-duration events. Lot 5 - Event Assurance Services Provides independent specialist expertise and scrutiny.
