Summary of the contracting process

The Christie NHS Foundation Trust procured equipment and installation for the Paterson Trust headquarters’ audiovisual setup. The requirement covers audiovisual equipment, lighting systems and installation services for electrical equipment. The work is associated with the Trust’s headquarters in Manchester, where the buyer is based. This is a services procurement with a practical delivery and installation element, suited to audiovisual integrators and electrical installation businesses able to supply, configure and install lighting and related equipment in an organisational or healthcare setting. The named buyer is The Christie NHS Foundation Trust, a public authority that uses public funding to procure services for its operations.

The procurement has been completed and awarded following a below-threshold limited competition using a three-quote exercise. It was treated as one completed lot and the contract was awarded to Pure Audio Visual Limited. The award is active and the contract was signed on 4 September 2026. The contract runs from 5 September to 5 October 2026. Its value is £20,580.35 excluding VAT, or £24,696.42 including VAT. The recorded requirement was assessed through the limited-competition route; the available outcome identifies the successful supplier and the equipment and installation scope, rather than publishing a weighted evaluation breakdown.

For a competitor, this award demonstrates that The Christie NHS Foundation Trust buys integrated audiovisual installation work combining equipment supply with electrical and lighting installation. A credible supplier for a future requirement would need to coordinate product selection, site installation, testing and handover, rather than provide equipment alone. Relevant capability includes commercial audiovisual integration, lighting-system delivery and safe installation of electrical equipment, supported by experienced engineers and reliable project management. Suppliers should also be able to price a defined, below-threshold requirement competitively through a short limited-competition process. The award to an SME shows that a specialist smaller business can deliver this type of requirement for the Trust.
