We are pleased to share some news that makes it even easier for public sector clients to work with us.

We have been awarded a place on the Procurement Services Audio Visual Framework, giving buyers a straightforward, compliant way to access our services without the need for a full tender process.

What Being on a Framework Means

Procurement frameworks are designed to make life easier for public sector organisations. Instead of going through a long and complicated procurement exercise for every project, buyers can work with suppliers who have already been fully vetted and approved.

Our appointment to the Audio Visual Framework followed a thorough and competitive evaluation. To secure our place, we demonstrated strong financial stability, proven technical capability, consistent service quality, and a clear commitment to delivering social value​.

This selection process gives you the assurance that we have the skills, experience, and reliability to meet the needs of your organisation.

Who Can Work With Us Through the Framework?

The framework is open to a wide range of public sector bodies, including:

  • Local authorities
  • Central government departments
  • Schools, colleges, and universities
  • NHS and healthcare organisations
  • Housing associations
  • Blue light services
  • Charities and voluntary groups​

If you fall into one of these categories, working with us through the framework could save you time and ensure a fully compliant procurement.

How You Can Access Our Services

There are two routes to working with us through the framework:

Direct Award

If you know you want to work with us, you can appoint us directly through the framework. This keeps things quick and simple, getting your project underway without delay.

Further Competition

If your project is more complex, you can run a competition between framework suppliers. We will be ready to demonstrate how Media Powerhouse can offer the right solution for your needs.

Both options are fully compliant and supported by Procurement Services, giving you complete confidence throughout the process​.

We’re trusted for AV Installations and Event Support at many Central Government Locations already, including Durbar Court at the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office

What Are the Benefits of Using This Framework?

Choosing to work through the Procurement Services Audio Visual Framework brings a number of advantages:

  • Access to the framework is completely free.
  • It is fully compliant with the Public Contracts Regulations (PCR) 2015.
  • You can re-open competition within the framework without the need for a full tender, saving time and costs.
  • Direct award capability allows for quick, compliant procurement.
  • The terms and conditions are designed to protect your organisation.
  • Free and full support is available through the Procurement Services team.
  • Benefit from aggregated spend and lower pricing, even for smaller orders.
