Summary of the contracting process

British Business Bank Plc procured video-conferencing equipment and installation services as a services contract. The requirement covers the supply of video-conferencing equipment together with its installation, for the bank’s operations in Yorkshire and the Humber. The buyer is British Business Bank Plc, a development bank wholly owned by the UK Government and based at Steel City House in Sheffield. The procurement is therefore relevant to suppliers that combine audiovisual or unified-communications equipment with on-site installation and implementation services. The classification is video-conferencing equipment (CPV 32232000). The requirement is focused on delivering a working video-conferencing capability rather than supplying standalone equipment only, so businesses should be able to provide both the relevant technology and the practical support needed to install it.

This procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. British Business Bank Plc awarded the contract to Cdw Ltd on 23 June 2026. The awarded value is £29,493.69 including the stated currency of GBP. The contract period runs from 24 June 2026 to 23 July 2026. The tender submission deadline was 22 June 2026. It was conducted as a tender for services, with no lot structure recorded. The award is active. The available procurement details identify the requirement and its value, but do not set out an evaluation weighting or a further named procedure. The award gives a clear outcome: Cdw Ltd was selected to provide the video-conferencing equipment and installation services for the British Business Bank’s Yorkshire and the Humber requirement.

For a supplier that did not win this procurement, the award is evidence that British Business Bank Plc buys combined video-conferencing equipment and installation services at a modest project scale. A credible competitor for a future requirement from this buyer would need access to suitable video-conferencing products, the technical knowledge to design or configure an installation, and engineers able to deliver the work in Yorkshire and the Humber. The successful supplier was recorded as a large organisation, while the procurement was not marked as suitable for SMEs or voluntary, community or social enterprises. Businesses should therefore assess whether they have sufficient delivery capacity, product range and implementation capability to provide an end-to-end service, rather than competing as an equipment reseller without installation expertise.
