[DescrProcurement]

The framework agreement will be established on foot of a competition for an initial contract in two phases. Both phases can run concurrently. Phase one relates to equipment to support video and audio presentations from a fixed lectern position in a formal presentation style arrangement. The timeframe for this phase is 3 months ideally occurring between June and August 2023
Phase two will comprise of a video conferencing system to enable web-based hybrid style meetings with remote attendees and content streaming & recording. The timeframe for this separate phase is also 3 months and may run in parallel with the first phase.
The initial contract will be awarded to the successful tenderer shortly after the formal establishment of the framework agreement. The Department building is a listed mid-eighteenth-century townhouse built by George Paul Monck. The Atrium, situated to the rear of the building, is a modern addition with a glass roof covering the old courtyard area. The Atrium is enclosed on three sides by the listed building and to the rear by a modern extension. Sensitivity to the listed nature of the building will be required. While the initial contract covers a specific location, the framework will be available for use throughout the Department. For the avoidance of doubt, the Contracting Authority confirms that the period of any contracts awarded under the framework agreement may extend beyond the date of expiry of the agreement. It is envisaged that the contracts relating to support and maintenance may be awarded for a maximum period of 8 years.
