Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process initiated by The Mayor and Commonalty and Citizens of the City of London focused on acquiring audio-visual equipment, specifically including the Epson EB PQ2220B projector and related components such as the ELPLM15 and ELPLX02S lenses, as well as a Unicol portrait projector mount for use at the Barbican. This contract was awarded to ARTAV LIMITED, a large supplier based in Middlesborough, United Kingdom. Notably, the procurement was completed using a direct method without competition, as it fell below the procurement threshold. The contract was signed on 18th August 2025 and is set to be active from 22nd September 2025 to 12th January 2026. This procurement is under the goods category, with a gross contract value of £44,121.46.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in audio-visual equipment supply and services, particularly those specializing in high-quality projectors and related hardware. Companies like ARTAV LIMITED that can offer specific, high-tech solutions suited to public sector environments are well-suited to take advantage of such procurement processes. While this direct procurement method limits competition, it highlights the importance of standing out as a preferred supplier through quality offerings and trusted relationships with public organisations. Businesses aiming to engage in similar opportunities should consider building relationships with local councils and authorities to position themselves favourably for direct procurement opportunities.
