The Ministry aims to explore the market for combined technologies, inviting expressions of interest by 3rd November 2023. The procurement involves a contract value of GBP 10,000,000, with the contract period set from 31st March 2026 to 1st April 2031. The buying organisation, Ministry of Justice, is based at 5 Wellington Place, Leeds, LS1 4AP, England. The procurement falls under the industry categories of Radio telephones and Security cameras. This tender opportunity from the Ministry of Justice presents a chance for Original Equipment Manufacturers to showcase their capabilities in providing combined Body Worn Camera and TETRA technologies. Businesses in the technology and security sectors with expertise in innovative device integration and operational excellence are well-suited to compete. The procurement process is currently at the planning stage, offering potential suppliers the opportunity to engage with the Ministry to shape future procurement strategies and technological advancements in the public prison sector. ## Notice The Ministry of Justice is looking at potential future options for the aggregation of Body Worn Video Camera (BWVC) and TETRA (Terrestrial Trunked Radio) provision across the Prison estate. The primary user for this solution is HM Prison & Probation Service (HMPPS) and currently there are 106 public prisons and 14 private prisons across England and Wales, with BWVC and TETRA provided to the estate under separate contractual arrangements. MOJ would like to explore the capability and capacity of the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) market for the supply and maintenance of combined Body Worn Camera/TETRA (Radio) technologies. By engaging with the market, the MOJ wish to achieve the following: - Explore the viability of a combined BWVC/TETRA device. - Determine the market interest for combining both elements, either as a combined device or separately under one agreement. - Gain an understanding of the latest technologies, development plans and opportunities to use them to enhance the service(s) in future. Additional information: MoJ invites expressions of interest (EOI) from Original Equipment Manufacturers to the email address in this notice by 12:00 Noon on Friday 3rd November 2023. On receiving an EOI, MoJ will issue a Confidentiality Agreement for electronic return before issuing a Briefing Pack and questionnaire which will require Suppliers to provide, at minimum: 1. Supplier company and contact details including confirmation and/or evidence of OEM status (note: we do not accept producers who, in general, do not control the means of manufacture or own the IPR to the product. MoJ's strategy of engagement with OEMs allows improved control of the supply chain and reduces risk in asset management); and 2. Technical data / evidence or capability of the Supplier product and the Suppliers operational expertise and capacity to meet the minimum requirements as set out in our Briefing Pack MoJ will review EOI submissions and reserves the right to conduct further engagement activity with Suppliers who can demonstrate the required product capability. The outputs of the EOI exercise and any additional engagement will inform evidence-based decision making relating to a potential procurement strategy for this project. Nothing within the notice commits the MoJ to conduct a tender exercise or enter into an Agreement and all information is indicative until and subject to change. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/39c1e0bd-9e8b-463c-84c2-cbb7482a8a0d | | Notice type | Planned Procurement Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Not specified | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Planning | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 13 Oct 2023 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 1 Nov 2024 | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 30 Mar 2026 - 1 Apr 2031 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £10,000,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Planned | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | MINISTRY OF JUSTICE | | Locality | LEEDS | | Post town | Leeds | | Postcode | LS1 4AP | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLE Yorkshire and The Humber | | ITL 2 | TLE4 West Yorkshire | | ITL 3 | TLE42 Leeds | | Local authority | Leeds | | Electoral ward | Hunslet & Riverside | | Westminster constituency | Leeds South | | Delivery location | TLC North East (England), TLD North West (England), TLE Yorkshire and The Humber, TLF East Midlands (England), TLG West Midlands (England), TLI London, TLJ South East (England), TLK South West (England), TLL Wales | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 32 - Radio, television, communication, telecommunication and related equipment - 35 - Security, fire-fighting, police and defence equipment ### Codes - 32236000 - Radio telephones - 35125300 - Security cameras ## Release History - 13 Oct 2023 at 14:09 - Planning - Planned Procurement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/39c1e0bd-9e8b-463c-84c2-cbb7482a8a0d ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/39c1e0bd-9e8b-463c-84c2-cbb7482a8a0d 13th October 2023 - Future opportunity notice on Contracts Finder ## Notice URLs - https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/ministry-of-justice ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
