Summary of the contracting process

Greater Manchester Combined Authority procured security services for its workplace facilities through the Crown Commercial Service Workplace Services framework, Facilities Management Marketplace Phase 2, Lot 1a. The requirement was a sole-supplier arrangement for security services. The buying authority is based in Manchester, and the delivery location is identified as the United Kingdom. The procurement is classified as building and facilities management services. This is a facilities security requirement rather than a general facilities-management package: suppliers considering comparable work should focus on their ability to provide security services within a workplace-services framework arrangement.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Corps of Commissionaires Management Ltd trading as Corps Security. The contract was signed on 22 July 2022, with a recorded contract value of £2,255,703.63. The published procurement value was subsequently amended from £2,255,703.63 to £2,333,501.13 excluding VAT; the signed contract value remains recorded separately. The contract began as a two-year arrangement with three optional 12-month extensions. The available description records extensions activated and expiry dates of 30 September 2025 and 30 September 2026, and also states that the final extension expires on 30 September 2026. This was a restricted further competition under the CCS framework. Evaluation was split equally between technical quality and price. One bid was recorded.

This award shows that Greater Manchester Combined Authority bought workplace security services through a further competition on the CCS Workplace Services framework, rather than a standalone open competition. A credible supplier for a future equivalent requirement would need framework access for the relevant lot, and the capacity to deliver security services across workplace facilities in the United Kingdom. The evaluation gave technical quality the same weight as price, so suppliers would need to demonstrate a strong service approach alongside competitive pricing. One bid was recorded and it came from a large supplier; this is evidence of the route and competitive context used for this purchase, not a guarantee that future competitions will have the same participation or requirements. The selected supplier was Corps Security.
