Payment obligations depend on the applicable regime and contract. Consult the official documents.
Coverage: 117 active published awards; 91 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 Unpublished data stays unknown.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.

What is being bought
The University of Exeter requires a venue to host the annual UKMMN Conference & Forum conference, funded by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council. The contract will include the possibility of hosting four conferences on an annual basis, with the first taking place in May/June 2025. We would look to hold this event in the same venue for four consecutive years, though this decision would be made following review of the initial event.
