Description

The successful tenderer will be required to provide security services at Henley College Coventry which is a vibrant and friendly, medium sized FE College that provides education, training and apprenticeships for approximately 5000 part-time and 1600 full-time students.
The College has an excellent reputation for vocational courses in a wide range of areas including engineering, hospitality and catering, health and social care, hair and beauty, computing and sport. Study options are available at all levels up to and including higher education.
Henley College Coventry's redevelopment has now been completed and was officially opened in March 2014. The £8million facilities at Henley College Coventry includes a new entrance hall with an exhibition space to display learners' work, a new block with 14 large classrooms and state-of-the-art conference facilities, four new hair and beauty salons, a lively restaurant, a sports and fitness centre, and a Grade One nursery. Henley College Coventry believes in providing the best possible learner experience.
The contract being tendered is for three years from 1 August 2016 concluding on 31 July 2019, with an option for a further extension at the end of the contract term and will be fixed price in nature, with the Contractor invoicing the Client for one-twelfth of the annual cost on a monthly basis.
At present the College employs two guards (one being the Supervisor on days) from approximately 07:00 to 19:00 hours. A third guard covers nights from 19:00 to 07:00 hours. These guards also work weekends, with another guard required for cover on either days or nights.
We expect the successful contractor to be able to bring innovation and excellence as part of the contractual relationship, as well as the desire to be proactive in the management of the Security Services Contract moving into this contractual term.
It is the objective of this tender for the successful contractor to have in place a management support structure, site supervision and training plan that ensures that all locations are kept secure at all times and that the required specification is achieved consistently.
The College's objectives:
• To build upon the already improved standards of security within the College
• To receive a service that complies with the service standards
• To maintain a secure working environment for all students and staff, within the College
• To receive pro-active management support for the security staff
• To hold regular review meetings with the successful contractor
• To support the Contractor in working with Students with regard to work experience and apprenticeships
• To achieve overall value for money
