Summary of the contracting process

The Government Property Agency (GPA) has awarded a contract for the provision of security professional services, including risk management, cyber security, and personnel security to assist their Corporate Security team. The award process was tagged as "selective," conducted through a dynamic purchasing system, and has been completed. The contract, valued at £5,000,000, commenced on 1st September 2025 and will conclude on 31st August 2028. The award was made to Bridewell Consulting Limited, a large-scale supplier based in Reading, United Kingdom. This procurement falls under the "Business services: law, marketing, consulting, recruitment, printing and security" industry category, with all operations set within the United Kingdom.

This contract presents substantial opportunities for companies specialising in security services to engage with the public sector, particularly those with expertise in cyber security and risk management. While this particular contract was distributed to a large supplier, firms can look to similar future opportunities through the dynamic purchasing system utilised by the GPA. Although this contract was not aimed at small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) or voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs), companies within these categories may consider joining the CCS Cyber Security Services Dynamic Purchasing System for future tenders, potentially increasing their chances to participate in comparable opportunities. Engaging in such contracts can enhance business credentials and foster growth within the public sector market.
