Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Havering procured audio-visual equipment and installation services for Phase 2 of its Hybrid Meeting Room programme. The requirement was to supply and install AV equipment to convert existing meeting rooms into hybrid facilities supporting both in-person and remote attendance. The work covered delivery locations across England, including the North East, North West, Yorkshire and the Humber, East Midlands, West Midlands, East of England, London, South East and South West. The service category was installation of radio, television, sound and video equipment, with the equipment element classified as audio-visual equipment. The buying organisation is the London Borough of Havering, based in Romford.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. It used a limited procedure: a direct award without prior publication of a call for competition, permitted through CCS Network Services 3. The requirement was evaluated on price. The single lot is recorded as cancelled, but an active award and active contract are recorded for the requirement. Insight Direct (UK) Ltd was awarded the contract on 13 July 2026 for £78,000. The contract was signed on 13 July 2026. One bid was recorded. The award relates to the supply and installation of the AV equipment and services for the hybrid meeting-room conversion programme.

This procurement demonstrates demand from the London Borough of Havering for suppliers able to combine AV equipment supply with professional installation for hybrid meeting environments. Relevant competitors would need capability in audio-visual systems, including equipment used for sound, video and remote participation, together with the practical ability to convert existing meeting rooms rather than only supply standalone products. The requirement involved delivery across locations throughout England, so credible suppliers would need appropriate distribution, installation and support capacity across a wide geographic area. The award route also shows that the buyer has used a public-sector technology network for direct purchasing. A supplier with a suitable public-sector route to market and a competitive price would be well placed for comparable future requirements from this buyer.
