Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "WPL06212-Lockdown Project & Paxton Net2 Access Control Systems Solution" was conducted by Hampshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (HHFT), a public authority in central government, based in Basingstoke, United Kingdom. The tender falls under the security equipment industry category with the aim to ensure safety by providing a capability to lockdown the external perimeter for three sites electronically, as mandated by the Prevention of Terrorism Act 2025. The procurement was awarded as a direct contract to Vigil Security Systems Limited, the longstanding supplier due to their access and technical expertise with the trust's IT systems. The contract value amounting to £147,498 exclusive of VAT, is set from 1st April 2026 to 31st March 2027. The procurement reached the 'Award' and 'Contract' stages on 25th March 2026, having previously cleared a standstill period ending on 28th January 2026.

This tender represents a crucial business opportunity for companies specialising in security systems, particularly those capable of providing advanced electronic access control solutions. As the project involves critical equipment for the safety of NHS facilities, companies with expertise in security technologies and infrastructure would find significant potential for growth through participation in similar contracts. Vigil Security Systems Limited, an SME from Sheffield, exemplifies a firm well-suited for this type of procurement, emphasising the importance of technical proficiency and trusted experience. Such tenders allow suppliers to strengthen their position in a vital industry, deepen relationships with healthcare providers, and ensure long-term partnerships through consistent service delivery quality.
