Summary of the contracting process

Satellite Applications Catapult Ltd procured audio-visual relocation and installation services for its office move. The work covers removing existing audio-visual components from the current site, relocating and reinstalling them at the new office, and supplying and installing additional equipment needed for the new workspace. The requirement includes audio-visual equipment, display screens and associated IT support services. The buying organisation is Satellite Applications Catapult Ltd, based at Harwell Campus in Didcot. The contracted service is categorised as services and involves both physical installation work and supporting technology expertise. Delivery is in the United Kingdom. The requirement relates to a single completed lot and was awarded to Harp Visual Communications Ltd, an SME specialising in visual communications and audio-visual solutions.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to Harp Visual Communications Ltd. It used a below-threshold procedure, with the published method details recorded as unknown; the contract was procured through a framework. The contract was signed on 10 June 2026 and runs from 9 September 2026 to 31 August 2029. It may be renewed for one month if delays outside the buyer’s control arise in connection with the main building contractor. The contract value is £174,787.72 excluding VAT and £209,745.26 including VAT. A 9 September 2026 amendment added maintenance support that had been included in the original procurement but omitted from the original notice for an internal administrative reason; the process and outcome were unchanged.

This award indicates demand from Satellite Applications Catapult for an integrated audio-visual relocation and workplace installation service, rather than equipment supply alone. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to survey and remove installed AV systems, transport and reinstall them safely, configure equipment in a new workspace, and identify and install supplementary equipment where required. Relevant capability spans display technology, audio-visual integration, IT support and maintenance. The successful supplier was an SME, showing that the requirement can be delivered by a specialist business rather than only by a large national contractor. Experience managing office moves, coordinating with a main building contractor, and supporting equipment after installation would strengthen a competing supplier’s position.
