Description

The Authority is looking to engage a contractor with the capability and capacity to lead, coordinate and deliver new Automatic Access Control System (AACS) software including the hardware platforms that support the software such as servers and terminals (but not door controllers or card readers). The contract will include installation and commissioning of the new software and hardware, the ongoing support including software updates, help desk / call centre support and the maintenance and repair of the new AACS software and related equipment. The Authority will procure some services from the incumbent supplier to enable a smooth transition from the old AACS system software to the new if required.

In scope will be the Parliamentary Estate including the Palace of Westminster and all outbuildings, any buildings added to the estate in future and decant buildings resulting from Restoration & Renewal (R&R). The new software must have the flexibility and sufficient capacity to cover all estate expansion.
