BBC Media & Broadcast Systems Integrator

The BBC was seeking to establish a roster of non exclusive framework agreements for the integration and installation of new and refurbished broadcast production facilities.

Systems integrators' responsibilities vary from project to project; these included project planning, detailed design, installation, cabling, performance and acceptance testing and supply of equipment.

The requirement consisted of three lots: Hardware & Infrastructure, Software & Workflow and Vehicles Integration.

Additional information: In the case of technology requirements, the BBC may involve its technology partner (Atos IT Solutions and Services Limited) to assist in the scoping and drafting of invitations to tender and/or the evaluation of tenders. However, the final decision as to which is the most economically advantageous (by reference to the award criteria) will be made by the BBC. The awarding authority reserves the right not to award a contract and to annul the procurement process at any stage. Tenders and all supporting documents must be priced in sterling and all payments will be made in sterling. The contract shall be subject to English law. The awarding authority does not bind itself to accept the lowest, or any tender and reserves the right to accept part of a tender unless the tenderer expressly stipulates otherwise in the tender document.
