Summary of the contracting process

Neath Port Talbot County Borough Council procured security services for Beaufort House and Ty Parc Newydd in Wales. The requirement covers security guarding, alarm response and key holding, supporting the protection and day-to-day security of both council locations. The work is classified as security services. The buyer is a Welsh local authority, and the requirement is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. A supplier providing staffed guarding, monitored or responsive alarm attendance, key management and coordinated site security would be relevant. The scope also includes responding to call-outs, including work associated with Golwg Y Dre, and requires an approach covering contract start-up, operational performance, staffing and account management, call-outs, contract management and social value.

The procurement is complete: Secure FM Limited was awarded the contract on 21 May 2026, and the contract was signed on 25 June 2026. The contract is active and runs from 1 July 2026 to 30 June 2027, with an option to extend for one further year, up to 30 June 2028. The awarded and contracted value is £217,737.66 excluding VAT and £261,285.19 including VAT. It was run as a single-lot open procedure under the Open Procedure. Evaluation gave 54% to annual cost, 3% each to alarm-response call-out charges and hourly charges for longer call-outs, and 40% to quality. Quality covered six method statements, including performance, staffing, call-outs, management and social value. Twenty-five bids were received and nine reached the final stage.

This award indicates a requirement for an integrated security contractor able to combine guarding, alarm response and key holding across council premises. Credible competitors would need dependable operational coverage, rapid and well-managed call-outs, secure key-control arrangements and the staff, supervision and account-management capability to maintain performance throughout the contract. The evaluation shows that pricing matters substantially, including separate charges for alarm attendance and extended call-outs, but quality also carries significant weight. Suppliers should therefore be able to produce clear method statements for mobilisation, performance management, staffing, call-out handling and contract governance. Experience of delivering similar multi-service security arrangements for public-sector or other controlled sites would strengthen their position, alongside a practical social-value offer and the economic and technical capacity to support the service.
