Description

Police forces routinely conduct audio and video-recorded interviews that require transcription for investigative, evidential, and reporting purposes. Currently, transcription processes involve significant manual effort, which is both time-consuming and resource intensive. The purpose of this procurement is to acquire an advanced transcription solution that enhances efficiency while maintaining very high accuracy and compliance with UK policing standards for both Surrey and Sussex Police.

The Authority will then test this solution over a period of up to one month against criteria which will be provided within the invitation to tender. Solutions in stage 2 will again receive both a quantitative numerical score and qualitative feedback as to the justification for that score. \nThe supplier with the highest technical score from stage 2 and pricing score from stage 1 combined will be awarded the contract."
