The Scottish Police Authority is seeking bids for the supply and delivery of audio codecs hardware, classified under the goods category with a specification focus on encoders. This procurement process, currently at the tender stage, is operating under an open procedure and covers contracts that will last 1,080 days, with potential extensions. Interested suppliers must submit their tenders electronically through the specified platform, with the submission deadline set for 8th December 2025.
