In plain English
Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole Council is buying a new Electronic Point of Sale (EPOS) system, including hardware and software, to replace or upgrade their till systems across approximately 30 council sites. They want one integrated system that automates payment processing, income tracking, and security compliance across all their commercial activities.
What the buyer wants
• Supply, install and commission EPOS hardware (tills, card readers, receipt printers) and associated software across up to 30 council sites • Ensure the system automates income reconciliation and generates financial reports • Provide a solution that meets PCI DSS compliance requirements (payment card security standards)
Likely requirements
Our reading of the notice. Always check the tender documents.
This contract is almost certainly too large and complex for most small trades: it requires specialist EPOS vendors with significant software development, hardware supply, multi-site installation, and payment security expertise. A general tradesperson or small local business would struggle to compete unless they are an established EPOS reseller or integrator.
How to bid
This is an open tender: any eligible business can respond directly to the buyer by the deadline, with no framework membership needed.
