Summary of the contracting process

Southend City Council is procuring the replacement of a complete door-entry intercom system with an IPGUARD system. The requirement covers supplying the equipment, installing it and configuring it for use as an IP-based door-entry and intercom solution. This is an equipment and installation opportunity, classified as intercom equipment, with the work associated with Southend City Council’s Civic Centre in Southend-on-Sea, England. The opportunity is suitable for an SME business. It is likely to interest security systems specialists, electronic access-control contractors, intercom and communications equipment suppliers, and electrical or low-voltage installation businesses able to provide an end-to-end replacement service rather than equipment supply alone.

The process has reached tender: Southend City Council invited offers through an open procedure above the applicable threshold. Bids must be submitted by 31 July 2026 at 23:59. The planned contract period runs from 1 August 2026 to 30 March 2027. The estimated total value is £150,000 excluding any applicable tax. The requirement is presented as a single procurement for the replacement, installation and configuration of the IP door-entry system. Suppliers should assess the tender requirements and supporting documents for the required technical solution, installation arrangements and configuration work before deciding whether to bid. The stated procurement method gives eligible suppliers the opportunity to submit offers directly, without a prior shortlist stage.

This opportunity suits a supplier that can manage the full delivery of an IP-based door-entry intercom replacement, including selecting or supplying compatible IPGUARD equipment, removing or replacing the existing system where required, installing associated hardware and cabling, and configuring the system for operational use. Relevant businesses may include access-control and security integrators, intercom specialists, electronic security installers, and electrical contractors with suitable communications-system expertise. Strong candidates will be able to demonstrate practical experience of installing and configuring IP door-entry or access-control systems, coordinating work on a council or other occupied site, testing the completed installation and handing over a functioning system. The SME suitability makes it potentially accessible to smaller specialist contractors with sufficient installation capacity and technical support.
