Summary of the contracting process

Birmingham City University procured improvements to its closed-circuit television surveillance system. The requirement was to replace the university’s current CCTV system, which was at the end of its life and out of warranty, with a modern solution. This is a security technology and CCTV systems opportunity, covering the supply of equipment and the associated improvement of the existing system. The buying organisation is Birmingham City University, based in Birmingham, and the work is for delivery in Birmingham. The procurement was classified under CPV 32235000 for closed-circuit surveillance systems. It was treated as a goods requirement rather than a construction or general services contract. The requirement was associated with the university’s estates and facilities environment and concerned a single CCTV improvement package.

The procurement has been awarded. ADT Fire and Security PLC was selected as the supplier, following a limited further competition through the North of England Commercial Procurement Collaborative Specialist Estates Engineering and Maintenance Services (Hard FM) framework. The procedure was conducted without prior publication of a call for competition. Two bids were recorded. The evaluation awarded 70% to quality and 30% to price. The contract value is £472,083.33. The contract was signed on 1 July 2026 and is active. The procurement included an option for a one-year extension. The underlying tender is marked complete, while the published award is active. The award relates to the CCTV improvement requirement for Birmingham City University.

This procurement demonstrates established demand from Birmingham City University for replacement and modernisation of institutional CCTV infrastructure, at a substantial single-project scale. A credible future supplier would need to provide a modern closed-circuit surveillance solution capable of replacing ageing, out-of-warranty equipment and improving an existing university system. The route used was a further competition through a specialist estates engineering and maintenance framework, so relevant framework access and the ability to compete within that purchasing environment would be important. The evaluation placed considerably greater emphasis on quality than price, indicating that technical solution quality and delivery credibility were central to supplier selection. Providers with experience delivering complex CCTV upgrades for large, occupied public or educational estates would be well placed when this type of requirement returns.
