Lot #1AwardedRenewal
Delivery: Scotland
Extensions: Future Requirements The Authority has a requirement for the refresh of some or all of the ANPR NRD’s at fixed sites, installed in all vehicles and re-deployables during the term of the contract. This will be dependent on budget availability and NRD life expectancy. In addition to the above, Police Scotland intend to purchase additional ANPR Equipment and services throughout the lifetime of the contract. .

It is therefore expected that the Contractor also acknowledges this and is prepared to both innovate and be flexible in responding to changing technological needs. The Authority would like the ability to purchase newly developed cameras, modules and any other associated items through this arrangement. · Up to a further 5 years extension (extension periods may be taken in multiples)Variant bids: not allowed
