Summary of the contracting process

The City & County of Swansea has completed an open procurement process for a Framework Agreement titled "Framework Agreement for the Provision of Corporate Security Services Lots 1-3". This process, governed by Welsh devolved regulations, pertains to the delivery of security services across various sites in Swansea, within the services category. The most recent award for Lots 2 and 3 occurred on 12th June 2026, with contracts starting on 1st August 2026 and potentially extending until 31st July 2030. The standstill period concludes on 14th July 2026. The procurement method was open, enabling a wide range of bidders to participate, confirming that the process was both competitive and thorough.

This tender provides substantial opportunities for business growth, particularly for SMEs specialising in security services. Eligible businesses could significantly benefit from securing ongoing contracts with a major public authority, such as Swansea Council, thanks to the scalable framework agreement structure. This opportunity suits SMEs with strong capabilities in providing security solutions across different settings, ranging from static guarding and event security to accommodation security services. Establishing a foothold in public sector engagements through such frameworks can enhance reputation and open doors to further contracts.
