Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) have been identified as suitable for this contract.

Businesses interested in providing security guarding services and aiming for long-term contracts should carefully review the procurement details and meet all specified requirements. ## Notice Portsmouth City Council ('the council') is inviting tenders from suitably qualified and experienced SIA or equivalent accredited suppliers for the provision of security guarding services at Lakeside North Harbour, Portsmouth. The council's target date for award of contract is March 26th, 2024, with service commencement following on May 31st, 2024. The initial contract term will be for 3 years with possibility of extending the term by a further 4 years in increments to be agreed, subject to the agreement and performance of both parties. The form of contract used will be the Council's standard terms for the supply of services. The estimated annual value of the contract is PS375,000 based upon current core requirements. The value of the contract for delivery of core requirements may increase or decrease in the event of changes to specification, changes to frequencies, and removal or addition of requirements from the contract. The Council cannot provide any guarantees of increases or decreases of the contract; however, any increases will be capped at 20% of the per annum contract value. The upper value of the contract in respect of core requirements could therefore theoretically increase to PS450,000 per annum. The above value estimate does not include for any non-core ad-hoc requirements such as additional support for events, specialist ad-hoc services, etc. No accurate estimate or guarantee in respect of value for non-core ad-hoc services can be provided, but it could equate to an upper additional value of PS10,000 per annum. Therefore, the full upper per annum value of the contract could theoretically equate to PS460,000 if additions to score services are taken up and a high volume of non-core ad-hoc services is commissioned via the contract. The council is ideally seeking to deliver a saving through this procurement process and avoid any cost increases. Therefore, Council reserves the right to set aside any tender that exceeds PS375,000 per annum for delivery of the Council's current core requirements. Tenderers, other than the current incumbent supplier, should also note that tenders will only be accepted where the tenderer can evidence that they have attended a scheduled tour of the site. The Council will run the procurement process in accordance with the 'Open Procedure' as set out within the Public Contracts Regulations (2015).
