Invitation to Tender (ITT) for the Provision of a CCTV Video Management System

Notice Description

This Invitation to Tender ("ITT") is for the replacement of an existing Video Management Platform System Software System ("VMPSS") including video wall decoders and Redundant Array of Independent Disks ("RAID") recorders. This will require support for the supply, install, test and commissioning of the new Closed-Circuit Television ("CCTV") surveillance system for the University (of Southampton). Background The University operates a CCTV system of c700 (seven hundred) cameras with recording devices for the safety of the University community and for prevention of crime around our Estate.
