Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process managed by Luton Council involved a tender titled "AT1781 - Additional CCTV contractor to carry out repairs, maintenance and installation of the Luton Housing CCTV systems." The procurement was in the services industry category, specifically targeting security and closed-circuit television services. It was conducted in Luton, United Kingdom (region UKH21). Initially planned and opened for bids in August 2025, the tender progressed through various procurement stages, including planning, tendering, and award processes. Despite reaching an award stage, the procurement was ultimately marked as cancelled on 17 September 2025 due to low competitive bids, following the bid submission deadline on 2 September 2025.

For businesses aimed at growth, especially those in the security services sector, this tender represented an opportunity to collaborate with a public authority like Luton Council. Local CCTV contractors were particularly well-suited to benefit, with an emphasis on those capable of offering repairs, maintenance, and installation services. The open procurement method allowed wide participation, favouring SMEs and social enterprises, with the possibility of contract renewal on a 1+1+1 basis. Although the original award was cancelled, the structure of the procurement opens potential future tenders, providing interested businesses the chance to establish a partnership with the council and contribute to enhancing security infrastructure in the residential sector.
