Who it’s for
How tendering for security guarding works
Locufy runs a reverse marketplace: instead of ringing round suppliers, you post one brief and local security guarding suppliers compete for your contract — a one-off job or ongoing. You control who qualifies and how bids are scored.
1. Post your project
Set the scope, site location(s), frequency and requirements — insurance, accreditations, SLAs. One structured brief out to tender.
2. Local suppliers bid
Security Guarding suppliers covering your site submit competitive tenders — suppliers with reviews, not cold leads.
3. Score on your terms
Weight price, capability, experience and sustainability; bids re-rank instantly as you adjust.
4. Shortlist & award
Compare like-for-like, raise clarifications, and award with confidence to an accountable local supplier.

Security Guarding — commercial FAQs
Are officers licensed?
Require it in your tender — specify licensing, screening and insurance, and only compliant suppliers can bid. Each document a supplier uploads shows as a badge — “uploaded”, then “verified” once we have read and checked it — and you can ask to see the document.
How do I get security guarding quotes for my business?
Post one brief describing your requirement and local security guarding suppliers submit competitive tenders. Compare like-for-like and award on your terms — free to post, no obligation.
What do the badges on a security guarding supplier mean?
Each document a supplier uploads (insurance, tax clearance, accreditations …) shows as a badge — “uploaded”, then “verified” once we have read and checked it — and you can ask to see the document. Every supplier carries real reviews. You can also require specific insurance, tax clearance and accreditations in your tender so only compliant suppliers bid.
