Decision details
CCTV Modernisation
Decision Maker: Cabinet
Decision status: Recommendations Approved
Is Key decision?: Yes
Is subject to call in?: Yes
Purpose:
LBTH currently purchases CCTV operator and
maintenance services from three different organisations. There are
currently no formal contracts in place. CCTV services are to be
transformed over the next two years to move from ageing analogue
equipment to a digital system.
It is proposed that LBTH procure these services via direct award
for the interim period. Due to the level of spend and the route of
procurement for two of the contracts, a decision by the Mayor in
Cabinet is required.
Decision:
The Pre-Decision Scrutiny Questions and officer responses were noted.
DECISION
1. To endorse the direction of travel for modernisation of the CCTV service and note the interdependencies of the procurement, digitalisation / capital upgrade and relocation of the CCTV control suite to the new Town Hall.
2. To issue direct awards for a period of up to two years to the three organisations named to ensure continuity of service in the period prior to implementation of a new digital CCTV network.
3. To authorise a draw-down of the capital funds (£3.1m) currently in the Capital pipeline to upgrade the CCTV system to ensure the financial sustainability of the service.
