Description
The Council intends to procure a single supplier framework agreement to enable delivery of high-quality CCTV supply, installation and maintenance services, including three other boroughs.
The network of CCTV cameras operating in public areas is an integral part of the council's approach to crime detection and prevention, and community safety. It protects the council's assets and the wider community, as well as being used by the Metropolitan Police and other agencies for policing and counter-terrorism purposes.
'A Safe Place to Call Home' is one of the five missions of the council's 'Vision 2030' strategy. Therefore, it is essential that the CCTV system be of a high quality, as well as reliable, to successfully achieve these aims.
A maximum of one supplier will be party to the framework agreement. Call-off contracts from the framework agreement shall follow the terms of the framework agreement including how a call-off contract is concluded. How a call-off contract is concluded is explained within the invitation to tender documentation.
The services will be required by Islington Council and other organisations who may access the framework agreement. Those organisations are:
• London Borough of Ealing
• London Borough of Hounslow
• London Borough of Southwark
This services contract is not being divided into lots.
This contract is not being split into lots due to the specific technical requirements of the contract and its specialist nature demanding consistency of delivery across the framework

The duration will be 48 months from an estimated start date of 01 April 2026. There will be no option to extend, however, call-off contracts may extend beyond the end date of the framework agreement.
