Audio Visual Supply and System Design, Integration and Maintenance

Tender description

NEUPCs existing AV equipment agreement has been consistently supported by institutions, and is expected to have delivered expenditure of approximately GBP20m over its four year duration by the time the agreement expires on 5th February 2016. NEUPC is looking to establish a new framework agreement for audio visual equipment supply and the design, supply, installation and support of integrated AV systems, delivering improved pricing and service, with demonstrable savings against those arrangements currently in place. The intended outcome will be a framework in two lots. Lot 1 will provide institutions with a route to market for audio visual equipment on a supply only basis. Lot 2 will provide institutions with access to Audio Visual Integrators, those suppliers that provide AV equipment and install AV systems. Lot 2 also provides for Audio visual equipment and services on a hire basis There is no opportunity for tenderers to bid for segments of the scope in either lot, however lot 2 tenderers will be required to identify which of the agreement users they do not seek to form contracts with. Suppliers will be awarded to either lot 1 or to lot 2 therefore tenderers may only bid for Lot 1 or Lot 2, and not both lots
