In plain English
The Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office wants a company to provide round-the-clock security guards for British government residential compounds in Juba, South Sudan. The work also includes a rapid response team, panic alarm and monitoring systems, and a control room. The estimated contract value is £1,625,000.
What the buyer wants
• Provide 24-hour static guarding for the Juba residential compounds, as the core requirement • Run a Quick Reaction Force, panic alarm and guard monitoring unit, and control room operations • Respond flexibly to surges, incidents and events, and show value for money, innovation and continuous improvement
Requirements
What could rule a small business out (our reading of the notice, written with AI): The notice does not list specific exclusion criteria, but the £1.6 million value and the need for continuous 24/7 guarding across several compounds, plus a rapid response force and control room, would most likely rule out a small business without the capacity to deliver at this scale.
Always check the tender documents.
