## Summary

The Hertfordshire County Council has initiated a tender process titled "HCC - 05/23 - Pre-Procurement Market Engagement (PPME) for the Provision of Security Services" in the services category. The Council aims to procure a new security contract starting from 1st October 2023. Organisations interested in participating must submit their completed Supplier Questionnaire through the In-Tend system by the return deadline of 12.00 Noon on 15th June 2023.

This opportunity presents a chance for security service providers to engage with the Council in shaping future procurement processes. Businesses that specialise in security services and are capable of meeting the Council's requirements for land and property assets protection in Hertford are encouraged to participate. The Council's intention is to leverage market feedback to inform its decision-making and tender requirements related to Martyn's law implementation.

## Notice

The Council owns approximately 2,000 land and property assets with around 530 being operational service properties such as libraries, fire stations, day care centres, waste management centres, offices, etcSome of these assets are vacant/void and do not have a staff presence on site.Not all sites require all security services e.g. some may only require key holding and some may have existing CCTV arrangements in place that will not be transferring to the new contract.The Council is looking to procure a new Security contract from 1st October 2023 and is therefore carrying out this pre-procurement market engagement (PPME) to inform its tender documents and requirements.Support the Council and provide services where necessary in relation to Martyn's law.Please log in to https://in-tendhost.co.uk/supplyhertfordshire/aspx/Home to review the PPME Document for full details
