Transport for Wales intends to undertake a co-design market engagement exercise to help shape the future procurement approach for the CCTV Estate Strategic Review, Risk Assessment and Investment Business Case.
The purpose of the engagement is not to present a predetermined requirement, but to collaborate with the market to test assumptions, challenge current thinking and better understand the art of the possible. TfW wishes to engage openly with the market to ensure future requirements are realistic, proportionate and reflective of market capability.
Through a collaborative co-design approach, TfW seeks to:
• Validate its initial thinking regarding the scope and objectives of Phase 1.
• Understand what should and should not be included within the Phase 1 requirement.
• Explore appropriate methodologies for strategic estate reviews and risk-based assessments.
• Understand lessons learned from similar CCTV, security and infrastructure programmes.
• Assess market capability and capacity.
• Identify opportunities for innovation and best practice.
• Explore future delivery approaches that may support later phases.
• Ensure future procurement activity reflects practical market capability and operational realities.
The engagement model promotes active market consultation beyond a traditional supplier briefing and seeks practical solutions aligned to the challenges of understanding, managing and investing in a complex CCTV estate. TfW is seeking honest challenge, constructive feedback and innovative thinking rather than passive consultation.
We want to understand:
• What good looks like for a modern, integrated CCTV estate.
• What should be included within Phase 1 and what may be more appropriately addressed in later phases.
• The risks and barriers commonly encountered in programmes of this nature.
• How TfW can move from “what we think we have” to “what we know we have”.
• How future investment decisions can be supported through proportionate and evidence-based assessment methodologies.
Organisations with expertise in CCTV estates, surveillance technologies, security infrastructure, asset management, cyber security, transport environments, risk management, strategic reviews and business case development are encouraged to participate.
