IPTV Middleware Solution

Parliamentary Service desires to procure an Internet Protocol Television (IPTV) middleware platform solution to be utilised within the Parliamentary Precinct (precinct). This will allow precinct to modernise the current Master Antenna Television and move away from a predominantly coaxial cable-based system to a centralised network-driven platform for running precinct’s displays.

Currently being procured is Phase One of the solution rollout, with the potential to extend the contracted solution across precinct in subsequent phases. The key objective is to establish a standardised, centralised IPTV middleware solution for approximately 120 displays, enabling TV distribution, e-signage, wayfinding, emergency messaging and future precinct-wide scalability up to 500 displays.

Phase One delivery consists of:
- establishing the solution within the new Museum Street buildings;
- supporting our Visitor Experience team to display tour schedules and visitor welcoming signage within the Executive Wing (the Beehive); and
- displaying Select Committee Meeting Room schedules within Parliament House.
