This procurement will provide for the supply and delivery of 100 CCTV cameras designated for use solely for the installation of new external CCTV systems on 26 LBTH Housing estates. Once completed the cameras will be called off for delivery by the CCTV installation contractor who will have bee separately procured. The Council works with the Metropolitan Police, Registered Social Landlords (RSLs) and other law enforcement agencies to monitor public space CCTV in the borough and support civil and criminal proceedings. It provides a CCTV service with around 350 cameras operating throughout the borough for a broad range of purposes and across a range of services. These are mainly concentrated in Community Safety, Public Realm and Licensing and are serviced by a 24hr CCTV control suite located at The Toby Club. The service is tasked with visually monitoring the public space and enabling a proportionate response to incidents as they occur. This can relate to street crime, vehicle theft, drug or traffic offences, anti-social behaviour, dangerous conditions and/or a major incident. CCTV has been listed as a critical service and is essential for business continuity. The Council’s CCTV system, a statutory service, has recently benefitted from a capital investment of £3.9m with £895,000 to ensure the CCTV Command and Control Centre has the latest equipment including a bespoke, state of the art LED Video Wall Display Unit capable of monitoring 42 cameras at any time. All 350 street-based cameras have been upgraded from analogue to digital, improving the image quality and zoom function and to help track and catch those suspected of being involved in crime. The network equipment and infrastructure has also been upgraded to support the new cameras. The work has been carried out in phases and was completed in April 2024. To further the CCTV Transformation delivery strategy programme, this expansion of CCTV monitoring will provide a more effective approach to managing ASB in and around LBTH Housing Estates This procurement will be subject to Section 20 Leaseholder consultation.
