The University of Exeter has awarded a contract for security services for its Streatham and St Lukes campus events.

The contract period is from January 1, 2023, to December 31, 2025, with a minimum value of £80,000. The procurement method was an open procedure, and the tender period ended on September 9, 2022.

## Notice

Event Exeter as part of the University of Exeter oversees all events taking place on its Streatham and St Lukes campus. As part of the premises licence and to protect the integrity of its venues Event Exeter requires a security presence at certain events. These can range from a function for 100 to a gig for 1700. These types of events run throughout the year. In addition we sometimes require security at events that are deemed potential flashpoints and we also sometimes require security to secure a venue overnight (perhaps as part of a client exhibition) The number of events will fluctuate yearly but the requirement would be circa 50 -60 per year with circa 15-20 of these events requiring security numbers up to 50px.
