The contract involves the purchase of a minimum of 55 fully featured and 40 basic self-service kiosks, including installation and staff training. This opportunity falls under the category of library automation equipment (CPV code 30238000) and is currently in the tender stage, with submissions due by 6 January 2020. The contract is anticipated to commence on 1 April 2020 and will run until 31 March 2025.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in technology and automation solutions, particularly those that offer products suitable for library environments. Suppliers of self-service kiosks, software systems, and training services may find this an advantageous contract, especially if they can demonstrate expertise in managing reliable and secure public service delivery. With the demand in Norfolk’s libraries focusing on reliable equipment capable of handling security settings and operational commands, companies that can offer tailored solutions that align with these needs would be well-positioned to compete effectively.

Notice Title

Library Self-Service Kiosks

Notice Description

The Council is looking to purchase a minimum of 55 fully featured and 40 basic, self-service kiosks including installation and any training requirements for staff. We are expecting to retain the current security gate estate and we would expect the proposed solution to be capable of handling the security settings on the tags. Devices should also be capable of accepting Wake on LAN commands. Over 50% of current open hours in Norfolk libraries are unstaffed, and many libraries will be equipped with just one device so equipment reliability, security and fault rectification speed will be key factors. Additional information: Is a Recurrent Procurement Type? : No
