Summary of the contracting process

Liverpool John Moores University (LJMU) is currently in the planning stage of a preliminary market engagement exercise titled "RFI2601 CCTV Review, Technical Design and Video Management System - Preliminary Market Engagement" under the services industry category. The procurement is focused on evaluating the market's capabilities to provide a comprehensive CCTV review, technical design, and video management system option appraisal for the university's estates. This process is not a call for competition but aims to inform the procurement planning process and budget justification. Interested parties are encouraged to submit their Request for Information (RFI) by the due date of 27th April 2026. The university, located in Liverpool, UK, acts as a sub-central government public authority.

The preliminary market engagement presents a strategic opportunity for businesses specialising in video-surveillance systems, security systems, and project design and estimation to showcase their capabilities to a major public university. Small and medium-sized enterprises with expertise in these areas are particularly well-suited to participate, as the engagement aims to gather intelligence and indicative pricing to aid LJMU in forming a robust procurement strategy. Although this is not yet a competitive tender, it provides an excellent platform for companies to position themselves for future procurement opportunities with the university.
