Summary of the contracting process

Gloucestershire County Council has awarded a Security & Keyholding Framework Agreement, classified under CPV code 79710000 for security services. This contract is part of an open procedure procurement method, where evaluation was based on quality, social value, and price. The contract, valued at £1,221,600, was signed on 7th November 2024 and will last for four years with no extension option. The framework allows various public entities, primarily within Gloucestershire and potentially surrounding counties, to access security services provided by Cotswold Security Group Ltd.

This tender presents substantial growth opportunities for businesses specialising in security services. Companies with expertise in keyholding, mobile patrol, and related security measures, as well as those meeting the stringent pass/fail criteria such as BS7499 and BS7858 standards, can benefit significantly. The framework's structure provides a consistent service demand over four years, fostering stability and potential scaling for the selected contractor. Therefore, businesses well-versed in delivering high-quality, accredited security services would be well-suited to compete in similar future tenders.
