## Summary

The Police and Crime Commissioner for West Midlands bought a Vitec system compatibility upgrade for its Internet Protocol Television solution, including hardware and ongoing support and maintenance. The equipment is television equipment, and the requirement combines a one-off hardware purchase with a three-year service element. The buyer is the Police and Crime Commissioner for West Midlands, based in Birmingham. Delivery is in the United Kingdom; no more precise delivery place is identified. This is a single-lot purchase, covering the equipment and associated support as one requirement.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to Griffin Video Communications Ltd. The buyer used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. The contract was signed on 9 February 2026 and runs from 9 February 2026 to 8 February 2029. Its stated value is £76,085.04 excluding VAT, or £91,302.05 including VAT. It covers a one-off purchase of hardware and three years of support and maintenance for the Vitec system compatibility upgrade. The process was not divided into separately awarded lots: it was handled as one lot. No evaluation criteria are stated in the procurement information.

For suppliers of television equipment and IPTV systems, this contract shows demand from the West Midlands Police and Crime Commissioner for hardware compatible with a Vitec system, paired with continuing technical support and maintenance. A credible competitor would need to demonstrate compatibility with the relevant Vitec system, supply the required hardware, and sustain support and maintenance over a multi-year service period. The requirement is a focused equipment-and-support package rather than a broad systems procurement, making relevant product expertise and the capacity to provide dependable ongoing service central to competing when this buyer next needs similar work. Griffin Video Communications Ltd, a small or medium-sized supplier, was selected through a direct award without competition.
