What is being bought

Published requirement description

Cardiff Council has a requirement for concierge style security contractors within the temporary supported accommodation units.

It is proposed to offer this tender opportunity through an open procedure as a Framework Agreement and the Council is to appoint a single contractor that possess a valid Security Industry Authority licence/membership for all staff for the duration of the agreement.

There will be eight Single Person Accommodation sites, three Managed Properties sites and two Family Accommodation sites that will be covered by this agreement. However, it must be noted, that throughout the duration of the framework arrangement’s locations may be added or removed subject to demand and need for security services.

The Council reserves the right to also vary the number of guards required at each site:

  • Recurrence: August 2025

CPV: Guard services · Patrol services · Public security services · Security services

What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 30 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 3 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.
  • “Security and Concierge Services for Supported Accommodation Schemes…” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 1 suppliers, not a single contract.

Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
