About
Scottish Prison Service awarded a contract to Pointer Ltd for the replacement of the existing Geoquip Perimeter Intruder Detection System (PIDS) at HMP Barlinnie.
The existing system, over 17 years old and in poor condition, was no longer supported with limited spares available.
The project involved installing a new PIDS interfaced with the existing Security Management System (SMS) and integrated with the CCTV system to provide a secure solution.
The establishment fence is protected by the new PIDS, which links to the CCTV system and activates in the event of an alarm.
The contract value was AUD 285,000.
