## Summary

Newcastle University has conducted a procurement process for the "Merz Court and Library AV Works," which consists of two separate lots aimed at enhancing audio-visual capabilities within its facilities. The tender period for submissions was open until 19 June 2018, and the contract was awarded on 2 July 2018. This project falls under the goods category, specifically targeting the audio-visual equipment industry. The contract, valued at £100,000, will be executed in the North East region of England, from 3 July 2018 to 15 August 2018. Interested suppliers were required to be part of the established framework relating to audio-visual supply and system design.

This procurement presents a valuable opportunity for businesses engaged in audio-visual services and equipment supply to expand their operations. Companies that specialise in audio-visual integration, system design, and maintenance would find this tender particularly relevant. As the awarded contract was focused on creating and upgrading AV spaces, suppliers with innovative solutions and a record of successful project execution in educational environments are well-positioned to compete and potentially secure more contracts in this sector.
