## Summary

The Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) has issued a tender for the Provision of Ad Hoc Security Guarding Services to the British Embassy Oslo. The procurement falls under the services category and aims to secure trained part-time security guards to enhance site access control and support Embassy security operations. The current contract ends on 28/02/2023. The tender process has been cancelled due to the decision to require more permanent security services in-house.

This tender presents opportunities for businesses experienced in security services to cater to the needs of the British Embassy Oslo. Companies offering part-time security guard services with English language proficiency are well-suited to compete in this tender. Although the current procurement process has been cancelled, potential contractors should monitor future opportunities for security service provision by the FCDO to pursue business growth in this sector.
