## Summary

The procurement process, initiated by the University of St Andrews, concerns the contract titled "IT Services: Access Control System Upgrade and Maintenance." This contract falls under the education industry category and is based in St Andrews, UK. The stage of this procurement is complete, with the contract officially signed on 10 July 2017. This procurement was conducted through a limited method, as the requirement was for additional deliveries and maintenance from the original supplier, avoiding compatibility issues that could arise with a new supplier.

This tender presents opportunities for businesses specialising in information technology, particularly those with experience in access control systems and maintenance services. Companies that provide upgrades, technical support, and system integration are well-suited to compete. Engaging in such contracts can facilitate growth for businesses that effectively demonstrate compatibility with existing systems and a proven track record in similar projects.

## Notice

Access Control System Upgrade and Maintenance.

### Lot Information

Lot 1

Upgrade of all existing magnetic stripe readers on existing ARX access control system to DESFire Readers, and ongoing maintenance for an initial period of three years of all ARX and HAMS control systems currently fitted at the University of St Andrews.

### Procurement Information

The requirement is for additional deliveries (and maintenance) by the original supplier which are intended as replacement of existing installations. A change of supplier would require that the University acquire supplies having different technical characteristics which would in turn result in incompatibility and disproportionate technical difficulties in operation and maintenance.
