Details

TfW proposes to procure a single, integrated security service covering stations, depots and on-train operations across the TfW network. The service will provide planned and reactive security activity through a flexible, risk-based and intelligence-led deployment model, supporting TfW operational teams and helping to protect passengers, employees and the wider travelling public. The contract will provide flexibility for TfW to increase or vary service requirements during the contract term in response to operational needs, changes in demand and emerging security requirements across the network. Revenue protection and event security are excluded from scope, with event security to be procured separately alongside crowd management services.

Documents

Before you bid on this tender

A quick checklist to help you decide whether to bid and prepare a compliant submission for this facility management & cleaning opportunity. Always verify the details on the official source.

  • Confirm the exact closing date and time (and time zone) on the official portal — deadlines are strict and can be revised by a corrigendum.
  • Read the full notice and every attached document, including the scope, specifications and any bill of quantities or terms of reference.
  • Check the eligibility criteria — prior similar experience, annual turnover, certifications and registrations — and make sure you qualify before investing effort.
  • Prepare any earnest-money deposit (EMD) or bid security and the required formats early; missing or wrongly-formatted documents are a common cause of rejection.
  • Note how bids must be submitted (online or physical), in what format, and whether a digital signature or portal registration is required.
  • Watch for corrigenda and clarifications right up to the deadline — requirements and dates can change.
