## Summary

The British Council is procuring security services for its main office operations in Warsaw and Krakow, Poland. The requirement covers physical security for locations where the organisation conducts large teaching and examination operations. The appointed supplier will also maintain the systems supporting office security, including closed-circuit television (CCTV), access control and burglar alarm systems. This is a services contract for an integrated combination of guarding and security-system maintenance rather than a supply-only opportunity. It is suited to providers able to deliver reliable on-site security alongside the technical capability to maintain and support electronic security infrastructure across the British Council’s Polish locations.

The process reached tender: the British Council invited offers through a selective competitive flexible procedure. Expressions of interest were due by 16 October 2026 at 20:59 UTC, and enquiries closed on 2 October 2026 at 20:59 UTC. The contract is scheduled to run from 1 March 2027 to 28 February 2030, with an option for three annual extensions taking the maximum end date to 27 February 2033. The estimated value is £238,591 excluding VAT, or £343,000 including VAT. The award decision was scheduled by 11 January 2027. Evaluation is based on quality and price: supplier responses on methodology, a procurement-specific questionnaire and ratio analysis, and the pricing approach, with the highest overall rate out of 100% selected. Electronic submissions in English are allowed.

This opportunity suits established security companies able to combine physical guarding with electronic security-system support. Relevant delivery capability includes staffing and managing security services for busy office environments where teaching and examinations take place, while maintaining CCTV, access-control and burglar-alarm systems. Suppliers should be able to coordinate these service lines across locations in Warsaw and Krakow and sustain dependable operational coverage over a multi-year contract, including possible annual extensions. The evaluation materials require a clear quality and methodology response, completion of a procurement-specific questionnaire and ratio analysis, and a structured pricing approach. Providers with integrated operational and technical security teams, experience supporting high-footfall or examination settings, and the capacity to deliver consistently across both Polish locations are well placed to compete.

## Notice
