## Summary

The National Audit Office bought audiovisual and video-conferencing equipment support and maintenance services for its London auditorium and meeting rooms, together with meeting rooms at its Newcastle office. The requirement covers operational support for existing AV and VC equipment rather than the supply of a new installation. It is a services procurement, classified under television and audio-visual equipment and information technology services. The work is delivered across the NAO’s London and Newcastle sites in the United Kingdom. The requirement is relevant to businesses providing managed AV support, video-conferencing maintenance, meeting-room technology services and related technical assistance for public-sector workplaces and event spaces.

The procurement is complete and was awarded on 20 July 2026. The NAO selected Carillion Communications Limited through a selective call-off from the Crown Commercial Service G-Cloud 14 Framework. The contract began on 3 August 2026 for an initial one-year term, with an option to extend for a further 12 months to 2 August 2028. Its total estimated value is £135,000 including VAT over the full two-year term. The contract award value is also £135,000 including VAT. The tender submission deadline was 1 June 2026 at 12:00. The successful supplier is Carillion Communications Limited. The procurement was assessed as suitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises.

For suppliers tracking future NAO requirements, this award demonstrates demand for ongoing technical support and maintenance across both a major London auditorium and distributed meeting-room facilities in Newcastle. Credible competitors would need to maintain and troubleshoot audiovisual and video-conferencing systems in operational public-sector environments, support meeting rooms and event spaces, and provide reliable service across more than one location. Experience with varied AV equipment, conferencing technology, fault diagnosis, planned maintenance and responsive user support would be commercially relevant. The route also shows that access to the relevant Crown Commercial Service framework can be important for competing for this buyer’s requirement. The stated suitability for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises indicates that smaller specialist providers may be capable of competing when they can demonstrate sufficient technical coverage and delivery capacity.
