Summary of the contracting process

The joint procurement contract for security services, titled "JP/2024/Security," was conducted by Chelmsford City Council in collaboration with Uttlesford District Council. This contract, classified under the CPV code for Security Services (79710000), falls within the services industry category. The procurement took place through an open procedure, managed electronically via Delta eSourcing. Located in Essex, within the region UKH3, the contract initially covers a three-year period with possibilities for two additional one-year extensions. The process advanced to the award stage on 25th June 2025, following submissions and bid opening dates in late 2024 and early 2025.

This procurement provides significant avenues for growth mainly for businesses in the security services sector, particularly those equipped for offering diverse security solutions, including manned guarding, surveillance, and event-specific security. Chelmsford City Council's contract, valued at £250,000, was awarded to Bold Security Services, while Uttlesford District Council awarded their £600,000 contract to Regency Guarding and Events Ltd. Both contracts provide ample opportunities for companies specializing in both cost-effective and high-quality security services, given the emphasis on a 60% cost and 40% quality ratio for award criteria. The division into separate lots for each council offers flexibility for companies capable of providing tailored security solutions in different locales and service environments.
