Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process detailed here pertains to the provision of security and concierge services for the Epping Forest District Council Civic Centre, awarded through Essex County Council. This contract falls under the industry category of repair and maintenance services (CPV code 50000000) and will serve the region of England in the United Kingdom. The award stage was completed on 18th March 2026, with the contract set to commence on 1st April 2026 and conclude on 30th March 2030. Essex County Council acted as the buyer, awarding the contract to Delta Force Group, a small to medium-sized enterprise (SME). The tender, initiated through a procurement method classified as "Other," was particularly tailored to accommodate SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises (VCSEs).

This tender offers a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in security and concierge services to engage with public sector contracts and expand their portfolio. The lengthy contract duration provides stability and a chance to cultivate long-term relationships with the public sector. SMEs, particularly those already providing repair and maintenance services and those capable of operating within the United Kingdom, would be well-suited to compete. It exemplifies the public sector's recognition of the importance of inclusivity, encouraging smaller businesses and organisations to partake in government contracts for sustained growth and development.
