In plain English
Caerphilly County Borough Council wants a security company to guard and run concierge duties (front desk and access control) at Ty Fesen, a temporary housing block for homeless households in Caerphilly town centre, and at a 10-bed hotel in Abertridwr that may grow during the contract. This is a re-run of a tender the council could not conclude for these two sites, so it is effectively a second chance to bid.
What the buyer wants
• Provide security and concierge staff to protect the welfare, safety and security of the buildings, staff and residents at Ty Fesen and the Abertridwr hotel. • Bid for this re-tender only. Tredomen Park is a separate part of the original tender and is not open to new bids here. • Attend the supplier engagement event on Thursday 29 October 2026 at 15:00 via Microsoft Teams. You must message your email address through the Proactis Plaza dialogue function to receive the link.
Likely requirements
Our reading of the notice. Always check the tender documents.
The notice sets no turnover or experience threshold, but at £1.05 million over a contract covering two sites with concierge duties for vulnerable households, a small firm would need proven capacity to staff round the clock, SIA-licensed and DBS-checked teams, and safeguarding experience, which most micro-businesses could not evidence.
How to bid
This is an open tender: any eligible business can respond directly to the buyer by the deadline, with no framework membership needed.
