Summary of the contracting process

The Security Industry Authority procured hardware and software, together with related services, for operational interview-recording and body-worn video devices. The solution is intended to support PACE-compliant interviews and body-worn video use, with cloud hosting required and delivery preferably through a Software as a Service model. The procurement is for communications, telecommunications and related equipment, covering delivery in the United Kingdom. The buyer is the Security Industry Authority, based in London. The requirement combines physical recording devices with the software and hosted service needed to operate, manage and support them. It therefore concerns suppliers able to provide an integrated technology solution rather than standalone equipment alone.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded on 24 September 2025 to Radiocoms Systems Limited. The award value is £47,342.40. The contract period runs from 5 January 2026 to 4 January 2031. It followed an open procedure below the threshold. The tender deadline was 6 March 2025 at 4pm. The requirement was classified as goods and was suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The awarded supplier is Radiocoms Systems Limited. The procurement covered a single requirement for the interview-recording and body-worn video solution, including devices, software and associated services. The award is active.

This opportunity shows established demand from the Security Industry Authority for an integrated interview-recording and body-worn video capability. Suppliers best placed for a future requirement would combine experience supplying recording hardware with software for device management, evidence handling and operational use. They would need to provide a dependable cloud-hosted platform, preferably on a Software as a Service basis, and understand the operational and compliance needs of PACE-compliant interviews. Credibility would also come from delivering a complete service rather than isolated devices: implementation, user support, maintenance, security and reliable availability would all be relevant capabilities. The procurement was suitable for SMEs, indicating that a focused specialist or technology integrator could compete where it can demonstrate the required equipment, hosted software and service capacity.
