## Summary

London Stadium 185, located at Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park in London, United Kingdom, has completed the procurement process for an Access Control System, with the contract being awarded to Fortress GB Limited. The procurement pertains to the services industry category and is described as a comprehensive solution that includes software applications and hardware to manage access control needs across venues and stadiums. This contract was directly awarded, due to existing integrations and significant cost implications of changing providers, under the legal basis of UKPGA 2023/54. The contract was signed on 20th January 2026, with the implementation starting from 22nd January 2026 and running through to 14th December 2028. The procurement process has moved past the award stage, with the project being marked as active.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in venue access control technologies, particularly those offering comprehensive solutions that integrate both software and hardware components. Companies with a strong track record of supporting large venues or stadiums, particularly in ticket-validation and scanning services, are well-suited to benefit from similar future contracts. Given the project's scope and the substantial value of the contract, small and medium-sized enterprises with innovative solutions may find promising growth opportunities by entering this competitive market, potentially offering complementary or niche services to enhance existing infrastructures. Businesses with the capacity to ensure seamless integration with existing systems, as seen in the award to Fortress GB Limited, have a competitive edge in securing such contracts.

### Procurement Information

Stadium has already implemented solution within the venue - to change this product, it will cost approximately 300-400k with regards to Turnstile readers, PDAs, servers etc. A major Business partner at the venue has an integration with Fortress as they sell tickets, which would cause major disruptions and additional cost to both parties.
