The contract was signed on 29 May 2017, with the buying organisation actively seeking a prime contractor responsible for delivering a comprehensive solution. The tender period concluded on 20 January 2017.

Companies equipped with expertise in delivering integrated technology solutions, project management, and user training would be well-suited to take part in similar future tenders. With a contract value of £300,000, competitors should ideally demonstrate strong financial turnover, relevant insurance cover, and compliance with quality management standards to successfully bid for such projects.
