UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Ministry of Defence, for Sovereign Base Areas Police, is procuring support and maintenance for the existing Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) system in Cyprus. The services cover preventative and corrective maintenance, technical support, software updates, fault diagnosis and resolution, and associated engineering needed to keep the ANPR estate operational. The contract also includes installing a small number of additional ANPR cameras and supplying associated equipment for future expansion. This is a services opportunity involving road traffic-control and monitoring equipment, speed-camera equipment, traffic-monitoring installation and software maintenance. Delivery is required across Cyprus, for the Sovereign Base Areas Police and their established ANPR estate.

The process has reached tender: the Ministry of Defence invited offers through an open procedure. Tenders had to be submitted electronically through the Defence Sourcing Portal; submissions by post, email or physical media were not accepted. The enquiry deadline was 28 August 2026 at 12:00, and the tender deadline was 11 September 2026 at 15:00. The single contract is valued at £568,000 gross, with a term from 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2031. The intended award decision date was 23 September 2026. Evaluation gives 60% to technical capability and social value commitments and 40% to cost. The procurement is above threshold and covered by the Government Procurement Agreement.

This opportunity suits ANPR, traffic-monitoring, security technology and specialist software-maintenance contractors able to support an established operational estate in Cyprus. Suppliers should be able to deliver preventative and corrective maintenance, technical support, fault diagnosis, software updates, engineering services, camera installation and associated equipment supply. Participation requires legal, financial and organisational suitability through a Procurement Specific Questionnaire. Bidders must be capable of transacting electronically with the Ministry of Defence using Exostar and CP&F, and of demonstrating compliance with Defence Standard 05-138, Issue 4 for Cyber Risk Level 1 contracts. The requirement is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprises. Technical capability and social value are more important than price in evaluation.
