UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

West Midlands Combined Authority procured the provision and installation of a Verkada-based security and surveillance solution for Midland Metro Limited. The requirement combines an Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) system with the Verkada Guest Management platform, integrating these functions into one operational system. The work falls within surveillance and security systems and devices, together with installation of communications equipment. Delivery is in the United Kingdom, for Midland Metro Limited, with the buying organisation based in Birmingham. This is a specialist technology and installation requirement for suppliers able to configure Verkada-based systems, integrate ANPR with visitor management, and deliver associated communications equipment installation for a public transport environment.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. West Midlands Combined Authority used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition, under the utilities regime. One completed lot was awarded to TACTILE TECHNOLOGY LIMITED, an SME, with the award made on 10 March 2026. The contract was signed on 10 March 2026 and runs from 11 March 2026 to 13 March 2026. Its value is £31,937.23 excluding VAT, or £38,324.68 including VAT. The active contract covers the full Verkada-based ANPR and Guest Management solution, including installation. The award relates to the complete requirement rather than separate competing lots.

This procurement shows a buyer requiring a tightly integrated security technology solution rather than a standalone camera or access-control installation. A credible future competitor would need practical expertise with Verkada platforms, ANPR deployment and integration with Verkada Guest Management, alongside the ability to install and configure communications equipment. Relevant experience in surveillance and security systems, system integration, commissioning and on-site delivery for public transport or similarly operational environments would strengthen a supplier’s position. The award to an SME indicates that the requirement can be delivered by a focused specialist rather than only a large prime contractor. Suppliers should be able to demonstrate reliable implementation of connected security, number-plate recognition and visitor-management functions as one managed solution.
