The Foreign, Commonwealth, and Development Office has awarded a contract for security guarding services to TRABLISA ESEGUR - SERVIÇOS DE SEGURANÇA, S.A. The contract involves providing security services for the British Embassy in Lisbon, the British Consulate in Portimão, and the official Residence. This procurement falls under the services category and utilized a procurement method of limited competition due to being below threshold. The process is complete, with the contract effective from 1st November 2025 to 31st October 2027, with a potential extension for an additional year. The contract has a gross value of £409,805.09.

Given the contract's international dimension and involvement of locations outside the UK, companies with cross-border operational capabilities or existing presence in Portugal would be well-suited to compete for such tenders in the future.
