## About this tender

The Council needs to procure an additional 30 Variable Message Signs.

The Council currently has 56 variable message signs (VMS) and 9 car park signs that are controlled by its Swarco Ltd., PGS software. The Council requires a further 5 VMS signs for the perimeter of its newly established, and soon to be implemented Clean Air Zone and to also generally supplement its existing VMS infrastructure.

25 of the Council’s current VMS signs are old and need replacing as they are 4 x 16 character signs, which are mounted on flanged poles. The 4 x 16 character signs need to be replaced as they do not synchronise and follow the same commands for displaying a message as the remainder of the Council’s newer type RGB (Red, Green, Blue) VMS signs.

All of the Council’s VMS signs connect to Swarco Ltd., provided software from which the Council controls the signs, with the ability to send single sign messages or group messages. The Council does not want additional software/programs to run the new and replacement VMS signs and requires a single solution signal software to control all of its existing and additionally required signs.

The Council therefore proposed to purchase an additional 30 signs and associated additional software and other ancillary products from Swarco Ltd.
