Description

Swindon Borough Council invites expressions of interest from suitably qualified and experienced service providers for the provision of site security for the Southern Connector Road (SCR) to secure the site until the appropriate stage that the road opened to the public. The site security will include the provision of on-site 24 hour site security (7 days a week, 365 days a year - pro-rata'd to the contract duration) for the SCR to prevent unauthorised access.

The Southern Connector Road was constructed throughout 2022 / 23 to serve The New Eastern Villages (NEV), one of the largest greenfield developments in the country.

Prior to its completion, the contracted company that built the Southern Connector Road went into Administration in Sept 2023, the Council have not been in the position to open the road whilst these works are unfinished on the site. As such, security measures have been put in place. The Council has been working towards the completion of the scheme in order to open the road fully. This contract seeks to replace the existing security provision with a fixed contract duration to address the security needs of the site. Full details regarding the requirements can be found within "SCR Site Security Requirement - 2024-25".

The initial contract term will be for 9 months with an option to extend for a further +3 months & +3 months (2 periods of 3 months) for a potential total contract term of 15 months as stated in the ITT documents.
Estimated contract spend is between £250,000 and £270,000 across the initial 9 month contract term and between £420,000 and £440,000 across the potential total 15 month contract term.
