## Description
The Victoria & Albert (V&A) Museum is planning to replace key components of its Access Control System (ACS) which is currently installed within its South Kensington site in London. The existing system also interfaces with other remote V&A sites. The small amount of equipment installed in these locations will also need to be interconnected via the organisation's data network. The Access Control System upgrade project will primarily involve the replacement of the software application, door controllers and input/output controllers. All ancillary equipment, including power supplies, are to be retained.
The project will require very careful planning, high-quality Project Management and a flexible and adaptable approach given the challenges associated with installation works within a public, Grade 1 listed building.
