The aim is to: reduce the need for wet ink capture and enable a solution which can connect to the Authority's biometrics database to digitally enrol fingerprint and other biographic data. The solution will consist of a fingerprint scanner which includes MRZ functionality, and can communicate with an Android smartphone with an electronic notebook application. The tendered contract will also include a requirement for maintenance and support of the devices for a minimum 3-year period with an option to extend 2 x 12 month periods. Devices will need to be mobile (hand held) and able to enrol biometric and biographic data for enrolment rather than just verification purposes. A software development kit will be required to integrate device with the Home Office android mobile phones. Additional support will be expected during this time to ensure successful integration. Full details of the requirement can be found in the ITT documentation. The Bidder's proposed device will be physically tested as part of the ITT evaluation criteria, to ensure it meets the need for both identity verification and enrolment on to the Authority's biometrics database in environments Immigration Officers are expected to use the device, (detailed in the procurement documents). Suppliers need to note that 3 product/prototype devices must be with the Authority for testing at the same time the ITT phase of the Restricted Procedure closes. If a Supplier fails to submit a device by this date and time, they may be deemed to have not submitted a compliant bid and that may lead to exclusion from the competition at the Authority's absolute discretion. Additional information: The Authority will not meet any costs or expenses incurred by Suppliers in participating in the procurement, including, but not limited to, the costs associated with providing a product/prototype for testing. The Authority cannot guarantee the condition of the device post testing. If a supplier wishes to have their device returned this will be at their own arrangement cost and expense. In addition, and at their own cost and expense, during the testing period the Supplier agrees to provide sufficient guidance and support to enable the use of their device during the evaluation (expected to be 1 month (approx.) in duration).
