Description of the procurement

Enterprise Ireland proposed to establish a framework agreement of qualifying competent suppliers of Exhibition Design Services for a selection of trade and knowledge events. The events comprise:
 national group stands at international trade shows;
 staging and display requirements for trade missions and conferences and seminars,
 arrangements for one-to-one meetings,
 ad-hoc events and branding requirements.
It was envisaged that approximately 20 exhibition stands and up to 10 other projects will be organised annually in several countries worldwide. The exhibition stands would vary in overall size from approximately 10sqm to approximately 200sqm. Enterprise Ireland endeavoured to facilitate adequate time for the planning and delivery of each project where possible. Nevertheless, tenderers were advised to expect requests to work on projects with fast turnaround requirements and compressed timelines (e.g., a couple of days-notice for small jobs such as graphics for a podium and/or stage backdrop using existing branding guidelines; or less than five months for a large overseas exhibition stand).
It was estimated that for the whole of 2023 (including the period prior to establishment of this framework), the geographical range of events requiring the services of an exhibition designer will be spread as follows:
 Ireland – 32%
 Europe – 42%
 Americas – 16%
 Middle East and Africa – 5%
 Asia – 5%
