BALI directors vote to review BALI Awards delivery
At a recent board meeting of the British Association of Landscape Industries (BALI), directors voted to issue a new tender for the delivery of the hugely successful BALI National Landscape Awards. Starting in 2018, it is anticipated that an initial contract for one year will be awarded to the successful bidder with the potential for a three-year extension.
Since Horticulture Week was brought in to work in association with BALI in 2010 the Awards have gone from strength to strength and are now the most successful landscape awards in Europe. The 2016 40th anniversary Awards attracted more entries than ever and in 2017 another record was broken when more than 1,000 BALI members, clients and industry guests attended the ceremony at Grosvenor House, London.
Speaking about the decision to re-tender for the running of the Awards, BALI Chief Executive Wayne Grills said:
“To date we have had a positive and very successful association with Horticulture Week. They have helped us develop the Awards and deliver a hugely successful ceremony each December. As we move into the next phase of our strategic plan the BALI board believes it is time to review the Awards to ensure we are achieving best value whilst being open to new opportunities and ideas.”
Details of the tender will be made available on the BALI website at bali.org.uk shortly.
