Security Services

Western College TVET (WESTCOL), a public Technical and Vocational Education and Training college in the Western Cape, has issued a tender for the provision of security services for a period of thirty-six (36) months. The tender is listed under the eTenders category for functional services, including cleaning and security services, and is reference PU9212/153. It was published on 6 November 2026 and closes on 7 December 2026. The listing is currently marked as draft, so prospective bidders should confirm on eTenders that it is open and that the closing date has not changed.

The tender listing itself provides only the title and the duration of the contract. The full scope, specifications, site details, service levels, pricing requirements, and evaluation criteria are contained in the supporting advert document ("Advert 2026 Security.pdf"), which is available for download but whose content could not be extracted for this summary. Bidders should download and review the advert carefully before deciding whether to submit a bid. In particular, they should look for the number and type of guarding posts, operating hours, the number and location of campus sites, any requirements for control room monitoring or patrols, equipment and uniform specifications, and the stated pricing and evaluation method.

A 36-month contract gives the successful provider a long-term, recurring engagement with a public education institution. South African public tenders of this kind typically require bidders to hold valid registration with the Private Security Industry Regulatory Authority (PSIRA), tax compliance and B-BBEE documentation, and proof of relevant experience. These are general expectations rather than confirmed requirements for this tender, so the advert should be checked for the exact compliance and submission requirements.
