What is being bought

DWP have a requirement as part of their Live Surveillance strategy to have a solution in place including but not limited to: Encrypted Live Streaming - capability provides secure, real time transmission of video from the vehicle to authorised users on a viewing platform. All data is protected through end to end encryption to prevent unauthorised access, interception, or tampering. Ensuring operational integrity and supports the safe handling of sensitive or confidential surveillance activities. Vehicle-based video storage and recording equipment - This component allows video footage to be captured and securely stored on discreet equipment within a vehicle. It continuously records during deployments and retains high quality video evidence even when network connectivity is unavailable. The system is designed for resilience, ensuring reliable performance under varied environmental and operational conditions. System will have the capability to transfer footage onto a portable storage device. e.g. a USB stick. Covert vehicle cameras - Covert cameras integrated discreetly inside and outside the vehicles to enable during surveillance operations. These devices are designed to remain hidden from public view while providing clear, reliable footage. With the ability to provide High quality footage in all weather conditions and during hours of darkness. Storage for footage uploaded from the live stream (evidence management system) - a secure, central repository for video content transmitted from live streaming operations. The storage environment ensures that all uploaded footage is retained in accordance with data governance, audit, and evidential standards. It also enables authorised users to access, review, and manage recordings as part of investigations or operational decision making. Application for viewing and controlling live streaming and in-vehicle equipment - This application serves as the central interface for authorised user(s) to monitor live video feeds and remotely manage connected in vehicle devices on DWP devices. Users can control cameras, initiate or stop recordings. We understand providers may not be able to fulfil all aspects of the requirements but would like to speak to suppliers who can fulfil at least 1.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 32. The category anchor is Closed-circuit surveillance system (32235000); this is a deliberately broad market comparator. The comparison is shown at several levels rather than pretending one company or region is always the best benchmark.

Comparison setProceduresReported bids per procedureNamed award suppliersPrice evidence
Market: CPV division 326202 median · 38.5 average (162 of 620 with a bid count)3.4 average (178 of 620 with named award suppliers)Not published

“Reported bids” is an official aggregate, sometimes reported per lot; it is the closest available competition measure. “Named award suppliers” are winners, not all applicants.

Price-outcome signal

Not enough comparable procedures currently publish both a GBP tender value and a usable lowest-valid-bid value to calculate a responsible price-reduction benchmark. Tenderline deliberately does not infer a saving from named award suppliers or from missing award values.
