## Summary

The University of Southampton is currently seeking tenders for the provision of a Closed-Circuit Television (CCTV) Video Management System, with a total contract value of £50,000. The procurement process is at the tender stage, and interested bidders have until 28th June 2021 to submit their proposals via the University’s electronic tendering tool, In-Tend. This project addresses the need to replace an outdated video management platform that supports a network of around 700 CCTV cameras on the University campus located in Southampton, England.

This tender presents an excellent opportunity for businesses in the surveillance and security technology sector, particularly those specialising in CCTV systems, video equipment installations, and security software development. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), as well as voluntary, community and social enterprises (VCSEs), are encouraged to participate, as the procurement method employed is an open procedure, allowing a wide range of suppliers to compete. This is a key opportunity for businesses looking to expand their footprint in the educational sector with innovative security solutions.

## Notice

This Invitation to Tender ("ITT") is for the replacement of an existing Video Management Platform System Software System ("VMPSS") including video wall decoders and Redundant Array of Independent Disks ("RAID") recorders. This will require support for the supply, install, test and commissioning of the new Closed-Circuit Television ("CCTV") surveillance system for the University (of Southampton). Background The University operates a CCTV system of c700 (seven hundred) cameras with recording devices for the safety of the University community and for prevention of crime around our Estate. The existing VMPSS is not fit for purpose, as it is incompatible with some of the newer peripheral devices and fails to deliver the functionality and levels of data protection and compliance required by the Universities Security Team.
