The tender, titled "Aviation Security Tender", falls under the security services classification within the wider services industry. Bids are being solicited for services that include screening of passengers and baggage, security patrols, and emergency response, all at Belfast City Airport, located at Sydenham Bypass, Belfast BT3 9JH. The submission deadline for proposals is set for 1 July 2022, with further selection stages anticipated, including an invitation to shortlisted candidates on 13 July 2022. The initial contract is expected to last for three years, with options for two additional one-year extensions based on performance and compliance with contract terms. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in security services, particularly those with experience in aviation or high-security environments.
