Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process was initiated by East Renfrewshire Council for the provision of out-of-hours man guarding, services at Overlee House, key holding, and fire alarm re-set services across eight sheltered housing complexes. This service procurement is classified under the industry category of General Public Services. The location of the service is East Renfrewshire, with the process reaching the award stage as of 2nd July 2026. The contract was signed on 26th June 2026 with OCS Group as the supplier, who will deliver these services for a contract value of £612,000. The procurement method used was limited, described as an award procedure without prior publication, aligned with the SXL Security & Services & Cash Collection Framework.

This procurement opportunity presents significant growth prospects for businesses in the security services sector, particularly those with experience in providing manned guarding and safety services for residential complexes. Large businesses equipped to offer comprehensive guarding and alarm response services are particularly well-suited to compete in similar tenders conducted by public bodies. Utilising frameworks like SXL can facilitate direct bidding opportunities, simplifying processes for large-scale service providers seeking to expand their portfolios in the public sector. As the contract is now awarded, it suggests a preference for established entities familiar with these framework agreements.
