The contract, valued at £180,000, falls under the security services category and is set to take place in the East Midlands, United Kingdom. This procurement is currently at the active tender stage and is conducted through an open procedure. The tender period will end on 17th March 2017, while the contract is expected to start on 1st September 2017 and last for three years, with an option for two annual extensions based on performance. This tender presents a lucrative opportunity for businesses specialising in security services, particularly those with a proven track record in customer-facing roles within similar environments. As the Council aims to enhance safety and offer a positive public presence in their new offices, companies with experience in managing security in public areas would be particularly well-suited to compete. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to apply, as they may fulfil the Council’s requirement for competent and qualified security provision during business hours. ## Notice In September 2017 Newark & Sherwood District Council will re-locate to new build Offices & Civic Suite close to Newark town centre. A number of partners have committed to co-locate to the new offices including the DWP. In preparation for the move the Council is seeking to appoint a suitably competent and qualified provider of security services to primarily manage the safety and security of public areas within the new building and the external perimeter during business hours. The security staff will be known as Customer Support Assistants and will provide a proactive presence in all public facing areas including providing a positive initial reception to clients, directional guidance and information on relevant Council policies. Companies with a demonstrable track record of providing security staff with experience of operating in similar customer-focused 'front-of-house' environments are invited to apply. The Contract is for a period of 3 years with the option of two annual extensions, subject at all times to satisfactory on-going performance. This Procurement will adhere to the regulations pertaining to the 'Light Touch Regime' as set out in Section 7 of The Public Contract Regulations 2015.
