Summary of the contracting process

Durham County Council buys temporary remote-monitored CCTV systems and related manned guarding for construction sites across County Durham. The requirement combines equipment hire and security personnel, with the number of guards, their operating hours, project duration and CCTV systems varying from project to project. The service is intended to provide security at the Council’s construction sites, linking guarding provision with temporary CCTV monitoring. This is a security services contract (CPV 79710000), delivered within County Durham.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to SHIELD SECURITY SERVICES (YORKSHIRE) LIMITED. Durham County Council ran a below-threshold open competition for one lot. The award was signed on 2 September 2026. The contract runs from 9 September 2026 to 8 September 2028, with one possible 24-month extension, subject to performance and a review of requirements, giving a maximum end date of 8 September 2030. The contract value is £200,000 excluding VAT (£240,000 including VAT). Evaluation weighted price at 60%, contract mobilisation at 20%, contract management at 10%, and CCTV and data handling at 10%.

The award shows demand for a supplier able to combine temporary remote-monitored CCTV hire with manned guarding at construction sites across County Durham. A credible competitor would need to manage a variable operational requirement: staffing levels, guard hours, project lengths and the number of CCTV systems can differ between projects. The evaluation placed most weight on price, while also assessing mobilisation, contract management, and CCTV and data handling. Suppliers competing for similar work from this Council should therefore be able to mobilise security personnel and monitoring equipment, coordinate delivery across changing site requirements, manage the contract reliably, and handle CCTV-related data appropriately. The successful supplier is an SME, demonstrating that a smaller business was selected for this requirement.
