Summary of the contracting process

Northern Trains Limited procured principal contractor design-and-build works to replace CCTV at Broad Green Station. The requirement combines a phased deployment of temporary and permanent camera units, including cameras for high-risk areas such as hoardings, with the later relocation of temporary equipment as station and ticket-office plans are finalised. It also includes two new CCTV columns and two external communications cabinets. Existing Marlowe cameras are to remain operational until the permanent station configuration and CCTV design are established, preserving current coverage during the transition. The works are based on completed ES5 designs, IDC/IDR sign-off, AFC drawings and a full bill of materials. This is construction work for Northern Trains’ passenger rail operations, delivered at Broad Green Station in the United Kingdom.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Circet (UK) Limited on 11 August 2026. It used a below-threshold open competition under a utilities regime, with one lot. The estimated value was £200,000 excluding VAT, or £240,000 including VAT. The awarded and contracted value is £168,251.36 excluding VAT, or £201,901.63 including VAT. The awarded contract period was 16 August to 15 November 2026; the signed contract is active from 1 September to 2 December 2026, and it was signed on 31 August 2026. The tender deadline and enquiry deadline were both 29 June 2026 at 17:00. Nine bids were received, with eight reaching the final stage. Evaluation was split equally between quality and commercial considerations, at 50% each.

This procurement demonstrates demand from Northern Trains for specialist rail-station CCTV replacement delivered through a principal contractor design-and-build arrangement. Suppliers well placed for a future requirement would combine CCTV system design, installation and commissioning with construction capability for columns, communications cabinets and associated station infrastructure. Credibility would also require the ability to manage temporary and permanent camera locations, maintain surveillance during phased works, and adapt installations as the station layout develops. Experience working from approved designs, sign-off records, construction drawings and detailed bills of materials would be relevant. The successful competition attracted substantial interest but no SME bids reached the final stage, indicating that larger contractors or firms with sufficient delivery capacity and rail-sector experience were best positioned for this scale of integrated works.

Notice Title

CCTV Broad Green

Notice Description

It is proposed that a comprehensive phased strategy combining both temporary and permanent camera locations to deliver immediate safety enhancements while minimising unnecessary expenditure. The approach encompasses the deployment of a selection of temporary and permanent camera units, the installation of two new CCTV columns, and the installation of two external communications cabinets. Permanent equipment will be positioned in areas where site layout is confirmed, while temporary placements are designated for high risk zones (e.g., hoardings) pending finalisation of AfA/ticket office plans and be relocated as required. Furthermore, it is anticipated that the Marlowe cameras will remain operational until the definitive station configuration is established and the overall CCTV design is refined. This ensures that the coverage and functionality currently provided by the Marlowe cameras will be maintained through the strategic placement of new camera units, as temporary positions at the hoardings do not offer adequate surveillance to fully replace the Marlowe system. This option uses completed ES5 designs, IDC/IDR signoff, AFC drawings and a full bill of materials.
