The contract, which falls under the industry category of public security services (CPV: 75241000), includes night guarding services for the site. This award follows an open procurement procedure and involves the deployment of two security guards to patrol the building's interior and periphery. The contract, valued at £263,019, was awarded to CHASE SERVICES GROUP LTD as of 30 April 2025. The procurement stage has been completed, and the process was conducted as part of an initiative to support a transformative regeneration scheme in the region.

This tender provides significant opportunities for growth in the security services sector, especially for companies specialising in manned guarding and patrol services. Businesses with capabilities in providing flexible security arrangements, including night shifts and holiday cover, are particularly well-suited for similar procurement opportunities. The scope for potential modifications to include additional security services across Carmarthenshire further underscores the opportunity for business expansion.
