Summary of the contracting process

Newport City Council has finalised a public procurement process for the "Provision of Security Services to Docks Way Site," situated in the United Kingdom, within the UKL21 region. This process falls under the services category, specifically security services, and involved the provision of CCTV services and manned guarding. The procurement was concluded using a direct method, described as "Below threshold - without competition," and progressed to the award and contract stages on 18th June 2026. The contract, awarded to Central FM Group, is set to commence on 30th June 2026 and will run until the end of the year. The total contract value is £84,000 gross, with a net amount of £70,000, highlighting that it was awarded below the competitive threshold.

This procurement offers significant opportunities for small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in security services, particularly those able to provide specialised CCTV and manned guarding solutions. SMEs with expertise in security services, especially those with operations or interest in the Newport and wider UKL21 region, could see substantial growth by participating in such local government tenders. Since this procurement was managed without competition due to its below-threshold status, it illustrates a favourable pathway for smaller security service providers looking to establish or expand their presence in public sector contracts, leveraging local government relationships to secure similar opportunities in the future.
