2021-162 Events Delivery Partner

This procurement is for an events management agency to support with the planning and successful delivery of event logistics and content for the Ofgem staff conference. Ofgem holds a conference for its staff every 1-2 years. The event aims to enable colleagues across its three locations (London, Glasgow, Cardiff) to come together to engage positively with Ofgem's organisational purpose and future vision. Previous conferences have been held both in-person and digitally and have successfully engaged colleagues in a variety of ways. For example, they have given a platform to senior leaders, brought in external thought-leaders for a dialogue with our people on key agendas, highlighted the experiences of the consumers we serve, enabled networking, celebrated success and contributed to a positive and upbeat organisational culture. Ofgem's last conference was held digitally in December 2020 as a result of Covid. While this was successful, Ofgem wishes to bring colleagues back together (depending on the changing Covid scenario) for an in-person conference next summer. Going forward colleagues will be expected to attend the office just 1-2 days a week, so this will be an important opportunity for colleagues across our locations to have a shared in-person experience.
