Court Security Infrastructure and CCTV Systems

The Department of Justice and Constitutional Development is initiating a Request for Information (RFI) to modernize court security infrastructure and improve closed-circuit television (CCTV) systems across various court facilities. This initiative responds to growing concerns over security threats faced by judicial officers, witnesses, and the public, including incidents of violence and intimidation. The Department aims to gather information on advanced security solutions that can effectively mitigate these risks while ensuring a safe environment for all court users.

Respondents are invited to submit detailed proposals that include a comprehensive overview of modern security technologies, pricing estimates, and the capacity to provide ongoing maintenance and support. The RFI seeks to define appropriate security solutions tailored to different risk levels—low, moderate, and high—while enhancing existing specifications for procurement processes. Key components of the required security infrastructure include perimeter barrier systems, access control management, screening technologies, and robust CCTV capabilities that support high-definition surveillance and emergency response systems. The information gathered will guide the Department in selecting state-of-the-art systems and qualified service providers to ensure the effective safeguarding of court facilities and personnel.
