UK6 - Contract Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Dorset and Wiltshire Fire and Rescue Authority procured body-worn cameras for its fire and rescue service. The requirement covers the area served by Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole Borough Council, Dorset Council, Swindon Borough Council and Wiltshire Council. It is a goods procurement for camera equipment, classified under CPV 38651200 (camera bodies). The requirement is intended for operational use across the Authority’s service area and includes the potential for additional body-worn cameras and cloud storage for body-worn-camera images, charged per camera and per terabyte. The procurement was run by Dorset and Wiltshire Fire and Rescue Authority, a public authority based in Salisbury.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a competitive further competition under the GCA Transport Technology Framework RM6347, Lot 5, using a selective procedure. REVEAL MEDIA LIMITED was awarded the contract on 10 August 2026. The contract was signed on 14 August 2026 and runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2030. Its value is £178,320.60 excluding VAT, or £213,984.72 including VAT. One lot was awarded. The contract is active and includes options for additional body-worn cameras and cloud storage. The award was above the relevant threshold. The procurement used a framework award route rather than an open tender.

This procurement demonstrates demand from a fire and rescue authority for body-worn-camera equipment supported by cloud storage for recorded images. A credible future competitor would need to supply operationally suitable body-worn cameras at service scale, with a dependable method for storing and managing the resulting footage. The requirement was bought through a further competition under a central transport-technology framework, so suppliers would also need to understand and access the relevant framework route, or work with an eligible framework supplier. The successful supplier was an SME, showing that the opportunity can suit a specialist technology business rather than only a large systems integrator. Experience supplying public-sector operational teams and supporting additional device and storage requirements would strengthen a competing offer.
