Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Department for Business and Trade procured parliamentary television and annunciator services in London. The requirement covers provision of these services; the tender describes it in general terms and does not break down particular equipment, operational tasks or service levels. This is a broadcasting and television services contract (CPV 92200000), intended to support parliamentary television and annunciator provision. The buyer is the Department for Business and Trade. The procurement is classified as a service and its stated delivery location is London. The award went to Whitehall TV Services Ltd, a London-based supplier. Small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises were considered suitable for this opportunity.

The procurement is complete and a supplier has been selected. The Department for Business and Trade awarded the contract to Whitehall TV Services Ltd on 5 October 2026. The awarded value is £74,910. The contract runs from 9 October 2026 to 9 October 2027. It was procured as a call-off from a framework agreement, using a selective procedure. The tender deadline was 5 October 2026. The stated overall estimated value was also £74,910. The procurement information does not set out an evaluation formula or detailed award criteria, so the basis on which bids were compared is not described. The requirement was treated as suitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises.

This award shows that the Department for Business and Trade buys parliamentary television and annunciator services through a framework call-off, and that a small supplier can win the work. Businesses considering this specific requirement in a future procurement would need to demonstrate that they can provide both parliamentary television and annunciator services in London. Credibility will depend on relevant broadcasting and television service capability and the operational capacity to deliver the combined requirement for the buyer. The contract information does not set out technical specifications, service levels, accreditations or minimum experience, so these should not be treated as established entry requirements. SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises were considered suitable, indicating the opportunity was not restricted to large suppliers or commercial businesses alone. A framework route is relevant to suppliers seeking to compete for this buyer's requirement.
