In preparation for a future procurement exercise, via an open tender, suppliers are being given an opportunity to demonstrate their product, which will assist the Council with their specification and tender preparations. The same information will be gathered from all suppliers who participate in the event. There will be 5 Suppliers chosen to demonstrate their system to ensure the specification will be appropriate for the tender process in August 2025.

This will help us refine our specification and potentially include additional features based on what we learn.
