Supply & Installation of Immersive Experience Pods (including on-going support)

As part of the preparatory work for a potential future procurement procedure, North Lanarkshire Council (the “Council”) is looking to engage with the market for 6 Immersive Experience Rooms to provide an entire room wall projection within various locations for use by Schools and Community Groups. The purpose of this PIN is to invite suppliers to engage early interest with a view to the Council contacting the suppliers who register interest at a later date. The form of communication may be e-mail or a supplier day, the Council will decide based on the level of interest received.

This procurement aligns with the Plan for North Lanarkshire which sets out our vision and plans to deliver a world class digital infrastructure capable of enhancing digital skills and levels of participation within our communities. The planned digital transformation is to be responsive to the needs of communities and enhance the opportunities to engage with services. A further ambition of the Council is to support all children and young people to realise their full potential. In doing so raising attainment and skills for learning life and work.

Having now completed the PIN engagement process the Council now wishes to progress to tender stage. The contract will be for a 5 year period commencing approximately February 2023 concluding in February 2028. The contract will be for an initial commitment of 2 new pods (including support) and the support of an existing pod. A maximum value of 2,000,000 GBP will be applied to the contract to include any future pods the Council may acquire funding for.
