    Brief

    Derby City Council is seeking a security services provider to deliver comprehensive security solutions for Council and Derby Homes properties. The service will identify and mitigate potential risks to protect people, property, and assets while meeting operational and financial requirements. The successful contractor must employ all security staff directly, with sub-contracting permitted only for CCTV installation and removal. A dedicated operational office is required to ensure effective management, responsiveness, and service continuity. The service will prioritize a proactive, customer-focused approach, treating all customers, visitors, and colleagues with dignity and respect. This is a cost-effective, value-for-money contract that balances security excellence with budgetary constraints.
