Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Cabinet Office has awarded a contract for the "Provision of Parliamentary TV Services" to WHITEHALL TV SERVICES LTD. This contract entails the provision of TV services to the Whitehall Estate, including an upgrade to IPTV, with additional support and maintenance. The industry category is centred around radio, television, communication, and related equipment. The procurement was conducted through a "selective" method, specifically a call-off from a framework agreement. The contract award was made active on 10 June 2026, with the contract period running from 29 May 2026 to 28 May 2028. The services are to be delivered at 70 Whitehall, London, SW1A 2AS.

This tender offers significant growth opportunities for businesses specializing in telecommunications, particularly those providing equipment, transmission apparatus, and associated services like IPTV. Small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) would be well-suited to compete in this space given the emphasis on IPTV and maintenance services. As the procurement is a call-off from a framework agreement, it suggests an established collaborative environment which often benefits SMEs looking for stable contractual relationships with government bodies.
