## Summary

Sefton Council is seeking to procure a guarding service for St Peters House located at Balliol Road, Bootle, L20 3AB. This procurement falls under the security services category, with a total contract value of £35,000. The tendering process is currently at the Award stage, having been published on 30th April 2018.
