Description

The Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea (RBKC) Council are seeking Expressions of Interest (EOI) from experienced and qualified suppliers to support our borough with enhancing and optimising our CCTV network infrastructure. As a Council committed to ensuring the safety and security of people who live, work or visit our borough, we recognise the importance of maintaining a robust and efficient CCTV surveillance system. Currently, the Council operates under a fibre circuit where the cost of these Services is circa £50-60k annually. We are exploring opportunities to innovate and improve our CCTV network by scoping: 1.What is available on the market for the continuation of this provision in RBKC. 2.Exploring what alternative solutions are available such as alternative fibre routing or 4G/5G networking. The Council has 58 Camera's presently run through rented fibre circuits across the borough, which route back to a central server room. The Council's aim is to seek alternative Fibre routing or other options for 58 cameras located boroughwide. RBKC's primary objectives for this Service include: - Enhanced Connectivity: We aim to improve the connectivity and reliability of our CCTV network to ensure seamless monitoring and surveillance capabilities across the authority. - Cost Efficiency: While maintaining high-quality service standards, we seek cost-effective solutions that optimise our budget allocation and provide long-term value for our investment. - Futureproofing: Anticipating technological advancements and evolving security needs, we aspire to implement solutions that are adaptable and scalable, capable of accommodating future upgrades and expansions. - Community Safety: Ultimately, our goal is to enhance the safety and security of our residents and visitors by leveraging advanced technology and strategic infrastructure planning. We invite Suppliers with expertise in this area to submit their EOIs by 5pm on 12th April 2024.
