Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Secretary of State for the Home Department – Home Office, specifically the Emergency Services Mobile Communications Programme (ESMCP), has awarded a contract for the Integrated Communications Control Systems (ICCS) Software Development for the Emergency Services Network (ESN) to Systel Systèmes & Télécommunications SA. This procurement, classified under industry-specific software development services, is conducted through a limited procurement method without prior publication of a call for competition. The award was finalised on 31 May 2022, and the total contract value is £981,754. The primary goal is to ensure that Systel’s IRIS system is developed to be compatible with the latest Kodiak features, which are crucial for emergency services’ operations in the UK.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in software development services, particularly those with expertise in emergency communications technology. While Systel holds exclusive rights to its proprietary software, firms with similar competencies in integrated communications systems, especially those able to develop or enhance compatibility with the Emergency Services Network, may find future prospects in related projects or subsequent contracts. Companies engaged in innovative solutions for public safety and emergency response systems would be well-suited to compete in this evolving market landscape.

Notice Information

Notice Title

ICCS Software Development for the Emergency Services Network ('ESN') -- Systel

Notice Description

This procurement seeks to establish a contract between the supplier as a vendor of integrated communications control systems (ICCS) software to the three emergency services (3ES) and the Home Office, specifically the Emergency Services Mobile Communications Programme ('ESMCP' or the 'Programme'), for the provision of software development and supporting services.

Lot Information

Lot 1

The service requirements are concerned with the development of a compatible ICCS product upgrade that enables the supplier's control room ICCS product(s) (as deployed to the supplier's UK 3ES customers) to interface to ESN, for the minimum subset of Kodiak 12 (K12) features as set out in the contract schedules. Kodiak is the mission critical push to talk application (provided by Motorola Solutions UK Limited) used on ESN to connect the 3ES to the EE mobile network (the ESN's mobile network operator). It is critical that the 3ES control rooms are compatible with ESN. If they are not, ESN will not work, and this could endanger life. This Notice is for the provision of services in connection with the development of Systel's IRIS Solution against Kodiak 12 (K12). It should be noted that the contracting authority may require Systel to provide further development work in the future, as may be relevant for newer versions of the release.
