Leverans och underhåll av metalldetekterande genomgångsbågar, handhållna stavar och detektionsstolpar

The Ministry of Justice (MoJ) is exploring the capability and capacity of the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) market for the supply of Metal Detection equipment, including dual sensor ferro and non-ferro magnetic metal detection archways, handheld detectors, and portable detection poles. The MoJ are taking this approach to support the HMPPS estate for the duration of the Agreement and estimated asset life of the equipment. Metal detection capability forms an important part of front-end security in prisons at staff, prisoner, and visitor gates. The Archways are part of a wider capability which looks to prevent contraband from entering prisons through multiple routes. The use of handheld wands and portable detection poles by prison staff provide essential avenues for searching for threats by scanning people, objects, specific areas and bags respectively. Archways, Hand-held Wands and Poles used in conjunction have a major impact on reducing conveyance routes for contraband entering prisons through Staff Gate Entry, Prisoner Visits and Prisoner reception by detecting threats related to SIM cards, mobile phones and razor blades amongst other metallic threat items. The Authority will aggregate the project into three lots to allow suppliers to bid for one or more lots based on capability in meeting metal and wider threat detection requirements. The Lots will be formulated as the following: - Lot 1- Dual sensor ferro and non-ferro magnetic metal detection archways - Lot 2- Handheld Detectors - Lot 3- Portable Detection Poles The purchasing agreement for each Lot will run for a total of six years. The maintennace agreement on Lot 1 will run for a total of ten years. The contracts for each Lot will be non-exclusive. The Authority will not guarantee any minimum volumes, value or level of demand under each Lot.
