## Summary

The tender titled "Define Object Recognition" was initiated by the Defence Science and Technology Laboratory (DSTL), based in Salisbury, United Kingdom. This procurement process falls under the goods category, specifically focusing on software package and information systems. It is currently at the award stage, with a contract value of £300,000, signed on 7th February 2021. The procurement method used was a limited approach, specifically negotiated without the publication of a contract notice, owing to the urgent requirement following a previous contract with the supplier Genetec Inc. The delivery locations include areas around Gloucestershire, Wiltshire, and Bristol/Bath.

This contract presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in software and information systems, particularly those capable of delivering object recognition solutions. Companies engaging in research, development, and manufacturing for governmental or defence-related projects would find themselves well-suited to compete in this procurement. The existing relationship between DSTL and Genetec Inc highlights the importance of demonstrating both capability and reliability to compete effectively in future procurement processes.
