UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Bedford Borough Council has launched the "Bedford Town Centre - Anti-Social Behaviour Initiative 2026/27," a procurement process within the services industry. This initiative focuses on deploying a team of uniformed anti-social behaviour officers to conduct patrols, engage, and resolve problems in hotspot areas of Bedford. The procurement was conducted using a direct method without competition, falling below the threshold requirements. The process has reached the Award stage as of 20th May 2026. The contract, valued at £161,000, with a gross amount of £193,200, was signed on 24th March 2026 and spans from 1st April 2026 to 31st March 2027.

This procurement presents significant potential for businesses involved in public security services, especially those capable of offering specialised anti-social behaviour management. Suppliers such as Waste Investigations Support & Enforcement Limited, already awarded the contract, exemplify the type of organisations that can benefit from such opportunities. Businesses with expertise in security, public management, and community engagement will find this tender aligns well with their growth strategies, especially if they can provide innovative approaches to urban security challenges. Given the procurement's sub-central government focus, it may additionally suit entities familiar with operating within the UK public sector framework.
