For BID managers and public-realm teams

One platform across every member, every street, every camera

Safety and security is the number-one priority and the biggest spend line for most of the UK's Business Improvement Districts. TetherX unifies that spend across BID members, public-realm cameras and the local authority - without rip-and-replace.

Bring Every Camera Into One District-Wide View

A typical BID has member-owned retail cameras, council public-realm CCTV, ANPR on the entrances, ranger body-worn and a few legacy DVRs in the loading bays. TetherX unifies all of it. The platform supports 1,000+ integrations and any ONVIF device, so existing kit stays.

  • Member cameras, public-realm CCTV, ANPR and parking on one screen
  • Per-member, per-ranger and per-police-liaison access scoping
  • No rip-and-replace - keep the cameras already installed across the district

Police-Ready Evidence In Seconds, Not Days

A signed, time-bounded link drops the clip in the officer's inbox. No USB stick, no estate visit, no chain-of-custody argument. The audit log records exactly who viewed and downloaded what - which is the bit prosecution and the Information Commissioner actually care about.

  • Share evidence by signed link with police and council enforcement
  • Full GDPR / DPA-2018 audit trail of every view, share and download
  • Bookmark and case-file workflows for repeat offenders

ANPR, Parking & Traffic Management - Integrated

Make every district entrance a number-plate reader. Spot known vehicles of interest, build pattern-of-life on repeat offenders, and feed parking and traffic-management workflows from the same camera estate. The ANPR layer is built in, not bolted on.

  • ANPR / ALPR across district entrances and car parks
  • Hotlist and watchlist integration with local policing partners
  • LED matrix displays at entrances showing the plate as it is read
  • Parking, dwell-time and traffic-flow analytics out of the same cameras

Live Talk-Down Or Verified-Video To An ARC

When AI detection fires, the camera is not just recording - someone can act. Operators issue a live audio talk-down through compatible camera speakers, which resolves most after-hours incidents. For 24/7 coverage, verified events route to your chosen Alarm Receiving Centre operator, who dispatches police, keyholders or BID rangers to the agreed procedure.

  • Live audio talk-down through compatible camera speakers
  • Verified-video hand-off to your chosen ARC for police and ranger dispatch
  • Customisable alert escalation - push, email, webhook into your existing tools

What BIDs use it for

Frontline use cases across the district

Retail theft & repeat offenders

Build evidence files across member stores - the same offender working three units on a Saturday is now one report, not three separate calls.

Fly-tipping & antisocial behaviour

ANPR catches the vehicle, AI catches the act, signed-link share gets it to the council and police without leaving the office.

Traffic, parking & vehicle dwell

Manage loading bays, controlled parking and traffic flow off the same camera estate that handles security.

CCTV system health

Per-camera and per-disk health checks across every member - you find out a camera is down before the next incident, not after it.

Public-sector framework tendering

TetherX-accredited partners hold the trade accreditations (NSI, SSAIB, ISO 9001) and public-sector framework positions BIDs need to procure properly.

Insurance & liability evidence

Reduce member insurance claims with auditable evidence of incidents, response and resolution - and reduce premiums in the process.

Customer story

Hainault Business Park BID - one platform across every unit on the estate

Hainault Business Park is a Business Improvement District covering dozens of units across the estate, with the unified video surveillance system designed and installed by one of TetherX's Gold-tier accredited partners. Member cameras and ANPR at the estate entrances sit on one platform - so a vehicle of interest entering the park is flagged once and seen by everyone who needs to act.

"Using TetherX, I can scroll the previous night's CCTV footage on my phone from the comfort of my own home, view the entrance real-time to confirm the site barrier has opened ready for business, and check the health of all the cameras. Looking after my tenants' safety and security while keeping their charges and my costs low is paramount."

BID & framework FAQ

What BID managers and procurement teams ask

Yes - that's the most common BID deployment. TetherX supports 1,000+ integrations and any ONVIF device, so member-owned retail cameras, public-realm CCTV and ANPR all sit on the same platform. Access is scoped per member, per ranger and per police-liaison user so each party only sees what they're entitled to.

Every view, share and download is recorded against the user who did it. Signed evidence links are time-bounded and revocable. Recording stays in your chosen UK storage region by default. Audit logs are the standing answer for SARs and Information Commissioner enquiries.

A signed link with a configurable expiry drops the clip into the officer's inbox. No USB sticks, no in-person collection. The audit log records who downloaded it and when - which is what prosecution actually needs in case-file order.

In most cases yes - through an accredited TetherX partner who already holds the framework position. Partners typically hold NSI, SSAIB, ISO 9001 and SafeContractor accreditations and have experience tendering through public-sector frameworks. Tell us the framework and we'll route to a partner already on it.

Platform pricing is from £80/site/year, plus the partner's hardware (TetherBox, any replacement cameras, ANPR units) and install labour. For a district-wide rollout your accredited installer scopes the members and quotes one project price - no central upsell, no per-camera surprises.
