Summary of the contracting process

The Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) completed a procurement process titled "EHRC 2223-17 VC Equipment" for the supply of video conferencing equipment including cameras, screens, speakers, microphones, and support services across their four primary locations in England, Scotland, and Wales. The industry category for this tender is video-conferencing equipment, with an additional classification under IT services. The procurement was conducted via a selective method as a call-off from the Crown Commercial Services RM6068 Technology Products and Associated Services Framework Agreement, concluding in the award update stage on 15th January 2026. The contract, valued at £198,603.22, runs from 19th December 2022 to 18th December 2027, following an initial award announcement published on 23rd December 2022.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses within the technology and IT services sectors, particularly those that specialise in video conferencing solutions. It is ideally suited for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), but not for VCSEs, given the nature and scale of the requirements. Engaging with such public contracts can offer long-term business growth, platform visibility, and potential future collaboration with governmental organisations. Suppliers like Pacific Computers Limited, who were successful in this case, stand to benefit from expanded services and client base through sustained engagement with the EHRC and similar entities.
