This longer duration could also foster greater competition in the procedure and potentially lead to a more competitive pricing. • Improved return on investment for the GSC: A 5-year duration provides a more effective return on the time and resources invested in the procurement process and the training of external staff, ensuring they become fully operational and add maximum value to the GSC. • Alignment with EU practices: The 5-year duration aligns with the approach already adopted by the European Commission and the European Parliament for similar contracts. fa-wo-rc none CONSILIUM/2026/OP/0015 Provision of audio-visual and maintenance services to the Council of the European Union/European Council and audio-visual services to the European External Action Service The purpose of this call for tenders is to establish a framework service contract for a maximum duration of five years relating to the provision of audio-visual and maintenance services to cover the needs of the Council of the European Union, European Council (GSC) and - in part - of the European Externa Action Service (EEAS).
