This active procurement process falls under the public security services industry category and is classified as an open procedure (below threshold). Interested parties are required to submit their applications by 10 June 2021, with the contract anticipated to commence on 1 September 2021 and extend until 31 August 2024. This project is centred in Gloucestershire, with the principal delivery address being Promenade, Cheltenham, GL50 9SA. This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in security services, particularly those with experience in managing safety at busy public venues. With Cheltenham's vibrant nightlife attracting around 20,000 visitors each weekend, firms capable of providing effective crowd management and customer assistance will find this contract especially relevant. Companies with a proven history in similar environments, especially in areas with considerable foot traffic during events, would be well-positioned to compete for this contract, thereby expanding their market presence. ## Notice Cheltenham has a thriving night-time economy, the biggest night life scene between Bristol and Birmingham and the third largest in the South West, with over 450 licensed premises attracting up to 20,000 visitors each weekend. Whether they are visiting one of the numerous bars, award winning restaurants, late night clubs, theatre or multiplex cinema it is imperative that everything is done to make late night Cheltenham a safe place to visit for all and the night-time economy continues to flourish. Since 2006 when the Reducing Alcohol Related Violence project; supported by funding from Government Office South West, was launched in Cheltenham, a great deal of effort has gone into reducing alcohol related harm and disorder in the town. The Codes of Practice launched in 2007 laying down common sense principles for all sectors of the night-time economy were the first such set of codes produced in the UK and were acknowledged as best practice by the Home Office. Taxi marshals were introduced at weekends and on race days at the busy rank in the Promenade, helping to reduce disorder and get revellers home quickly and safely. The Promenade is the busiest taxi rank in Cheltenham with as many as 2,000 using the rank each weekend and upward of 20,000 during the Cheltenham Gold Cup week.
