Summary of the contracting process

East and North Hertfordshire Teaching NHS Trust procured audio-visual equipment for its main entrance and board rooms. The requirement is for AV hardware and associated equipment, within the broader computer equipment and supplies category. The Trust is based in Welwyn Garden City, and delivery is identified at postcode SG1 4AB in England. This is a goods purchase intended to equip the Trust’s entrance and meeting rooms; no installation, maintenance or other service scope is described. The purchase was made through the NHS SBS Digital Workplace Solutions framework, so it represents a framework call-off rather than a standalone open competition.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to TRUSTCO PLC. The award was made on 7 August 2026 for £57,000, with the contract running from 11 August 2026 to 11 August 2027. The estimated procurement range was £50,000 to £57,000. The Trust used a selective procedure, making a call-off from the NHS SBS Digital Workplace Solutions Framework (reference SBS10510). The recorded submission deadline was 13 July 2026. One award is recorded, for the audio-visual equipment requirement as a whole; no separate lots are identified. The published procurement information gives no evaluation criteria or supplier qualification requirements beyond the framework route, and marks the requirement as unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises.

This award shows demand from the Trust for audio-visual equipment serving a main entrance and board rooms, at a scale suited to a defined institutional equipment package rather than a broad services contract. A supplier seeking to compete if this same requirement returns would need to offer suitable AV equipment for reception and meeting-room use, and be capable of supplying it through the NHS SBS Digital Workplace Solutions Framework. The successful supplier was identified as an SME, although the procurement was marked unsuitable for SMEs; that distinction means the result demonstrates an SME can win, but does not establish that the requirement was formally considered SME-suitable. No particular technical standards, brands, installation expertise, accreditations or service obligations are stated, so the award does not evidence a need for these beyond the equipment supply itself.
