Hume Council Seeks Body-Worn Cameras And Digital Evidence Platform.
Hume Council Seeks Body-Worn Cameras – Hume City Council is seeking expressions of interest for a body-worn camera system and cloud-based digital evidence management system, with the procurement intended to enhance the safety and wellbeing of council staff.
The proposed system will combine body-worn camera hardware with a cloud platform for managing recorded digital evidence. The published expression of interest request does not specify the number or type of cameras, the intended user groups, storage requirements, retention periods or integrations – you will need to find out more about that yourself.

Hume’s community safety program includes measures covering public-place safety, transport safety and protection of council staff and assets, while council’s existing CCTV policy identifies protection of staff and customers around council buildings, evidence collection and crime prevention among the purposes of surveillance systems.
Hume’s technology function also manages information infrastructure, records management and technology services across council, while its digital transformation program includes replacing outdated systems, reducing cyber risks and improving data accessibility.
The digital evidence component will be an important part of the procurement – a cloud DEMS that provides a central environment for storing and managing recordings.

3Which council systems must it integrate with, such as records, identity or existing CCTV?
