Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Waltham Forest commissioned works to upgrade and enhance the audio-visual system in its Council Chamber. The project builds on the existing system and infrastructure, improving functionality, performance and resilience for council and committee meetings. The scope covers audio, microphones, video and display equipment, as well as meeting and presentation functions, recording and webcasting. Associated work includes configuring and installing the equipment, testing it and providing support. The delivery location is Waltham Forest, London.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. The council awarded the single lot to CIVICO LIMITED. The contract was signed on 23 September 2026 and runs from 24 September to 31 October 2026. Its value is £48,014.40 including VAT. The council used a below-threshold direct award without competition. No award date is stated in the available process details.

For suppliers assessing this buyer’s future council-chamber AV requirements, this award demonstrates demand for upgrading an existing, operational meeting environment rather than supplying equipment alone. A credible competitor would need to integrate audio, microphone, video and display equipment with existing infrastructure, while improving reliability and performance. The scope also points to capability across meeting and presentation functionality, recording and webcasting, with configuration, installation, testing and post-installation support delivered as part of the works. Suppliers able to coordinate the full installation and verify that the system works for council and committee meetings would be well placed to compete. The selected provider is a large supplier, indicating the scale of the successful contractor.
