Notice Title
Conferencing System within the Council Chamber and Committee rooms for Bridgend County Borough Council
Notice Description
Bridgend Council is procuring an updated conferencing system for its Council Chamber and Committee rooms. The essential aim of the new system will be the facilitation of effective hybrid meetings and future sustainability, via a whole system approach, in line with the requirements of the Local Government and Elections (Wales) Act 2021. The new system needs to enable seamless hybrid meetings (in-person + remote), ensure accessibility and inclusivity, provide high-quality audio-visual experience for all participants and both record and live stream public meetings. The Chamber system also needs to support transparent decision-making with real-time integrated voting and provide real time welsh translation
