## Summary

The London Borough of Lewisham commissioned a specialist environmental crime detection and enforcement pilot focused on fly-tipping. The work covers six deployable camera units and associated artificial-intelligence software to identify fly-tipping and other environmental crime. The service includes automated detection, evidence management, hotspot analytics, court-admissible evidence packs, hosting, training, maintenance and support. The pilot is intended to assess whether this technology improves enforcement outcomes, helps identify offenders and offers value for money before the council makes any longer-term procurement decision. The service is for use in Lewisham, London.

The procurement is complete: the council selected ALPHAIOTA and signed the contract on 24 September 2026. The award was made on 23 September 2026. The contract runs from 24 September 2026 to 23 September 2027, with a value of £50,000 excluding VAT (£60,000 including VAT). The requirement was procured as a below-threshold direct award without competition. It was arranged as one lot. The stated purpose is to test the technology's effectiveness in improving enforcement, identifying offenders and providing value for money; no further evaluation criteria are recorded.

This award shows Lewisham’s demand for a joined-up fly-tipping detection and enforcement service, rather than cameras alone. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this kind would need to supply deployable surveillance cameras and AI detection software, and connect detection to practical enforcement through evidence management, hotspot analysis and court-admissible evidence packs. The requirement also encompasses hosting, staff training, maintenance and ongoing support, so suppliers need the capacity to deliver and sustain both the technology and the operational service. Experience supporting environmental crime investigations and helping a local authority turn camera detections into usable enforcement evidence would be relevant. The pilot’s purpose is to test operational outcomes and value for money, making demonstrable evidence of effectiveness commercially important.
