The Council offers RFID self-service terminals at all 18 public libraries where self-service has become an integral and trusted service provision. The existing contract is due to expire, and the Council is seeking to better understand the current market capabilities, available delivery models, and emerging innovations before commencing a formal procurement process. The Library Service is therefore looking to procure a range of RFID solutions, including new RFID terminals, associated software, consumable items such as RFID tag pads, and a maintenance and servicing contract to support the ongoing operation of the system. ## CPV classification Office and computing machinery, equipment and supplies except furniture and software packages Source Find a Tender (UK) · Notice ocds-h6vhtk-06e856-2026-08-20T10:57:33+01:00 [View official notice](https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/ocds-h6vhtk-06e856-2026-08-20T10:57:33+01:00) Never miss a tender like this again Get AI summaries, deadline alerts and a bid pipeline for tenders matched to your business.
