Coverage: 10 active published awards; 0 bid reports (which may be per lot). Supplier values exclude multi-supplier awards, frameworks and DPS, and use GBP only. They are published award values, not payments. Published-to-award variance compares single-lot, single-award, single-supplier GBP procedures with explicitly non-framework/non-DPS status; increases remain in the average. Unpublished data stays unknown. Awarded suppliers are winners, not all bidders.

Procedure rationaleHilton Birmingham Metropole meets the needs of all 3 days of PLx while offering good value compared to the other 4 venues.
The dates of Monday 30 November to Wednesday 2 December align with the usual date window for PLx that UK Sport suggest is most suitable. The Hilton Birmingham Metropole is the only venue with availability in this week.
The venue provides on site opportunities for other gatherings if required, rather than sourcing other venues.
The last two PLx events have been delivered in the North of England (Manchester and Leeds), The Hilton Birmingham Metropole offers the opportunity to host the event in a central location ensuring those based in the south are not always impacted by travel.
Strong national accessibility in a central location with excellent rail, road and airport links.
All bedrooms are on site, supporting a cohesive event experience.
Hilton Birmingham Metropole is fully accessible.
Contracting directly with the venue rather than via a third party gives us the opportunity to have more control and work more closely with the venu |
