Framework for manned guarding services across Irish government sites.
The Office of Public Works (OPW) in Ireland is establishing a multi-supplier framework agreement for manned guarding and related security services. The framework covers static guarding, mobile patrols, alarm response, key holding, and event security for various government buildings and sites across Ireland. Bidders must have a valid Private Security Authority (PSA) license and demonstrate experience in providing similar services to public sector clients. The framework is for an initial term of 4 years with an option to extend for up to 2 additional years. The estimated total value is €50 million, making it a high-value opportunity for security firms.
