    "description": "This procurement represents a re-tender of the opportunity for a Replacement CCTV System previously published under the notice reference 2026/S 000-056590.  Following a comprehensive review of the previous iteration, the RAU has revised both the core technical specifications for the estate's video management system and the associated assessment methodology to better align with the organisational security objectives and market capabilities. \nThe University has recently updated its central storage infrastructure and has deployed an Avigilon Unity 160TB AI NVR2X server to the RAU estate. \nConsequently,  this Invitation to Tender (ITT) covers the supply, configuration, integration, and commissioning of all remaining system elements required to deliver a fully operational solution that integrates with this existing hardware asset,  The scope includes,  but is not limited to: cameras, software licences, peripheral hardware, network cabling, installation services, staff training, and ongoing lifecycle maintenance and software support services. \nPotential Bidders should note that the evaluation framework utilizes a refined combination of objective (commercial models) and subjective (qualitative delivery) award criteria.  Full details of the updated requirements and explicit assessment matrices are provided within the associated tender documents. \nIMPORTANT Notice Regarding Previous Submissions:  This process is an entirely independent procurement exercise.  For the avoidance of doubt,  responses received during the aborted 2026 exercise do not constitute, and will not be treated as, preliminary market consultation or market engagement information under the Procurement Act 2023.
