Procurement of External Security Services for the Judicial Authorities in Swabia (including Landsberg am Lech)

This contract pertains to the provision of security services within Bavarian judicial buildings, aiming to ensure a safe environment for all individuals present, including parties involved in legal proceedings, judicial staff, visitors, and other authorized persons. A primary requirement is the regular and thorough inspection of individuals seeking entry to court premises to detect dangerous items, particularly weapons. This must be balanced with the principle of public access to justice, as stipulated by Article 6 of the European Convention on Human Rights and Section 169 of the German Court Constitution Act, which guarantees the openness of court proceedings. The objective is to maintain both "open" and secure courts, which necessitates the deployment of diligent, professional, and adequately numerous security personnel. In addition to existing judicial security staff, private security companies will be engaged to fulfill these responsibilities. The presence of security forces is crucial for ensuring both objective and subjective safety within the courts. While entrance checks and searches will primarily be conducted during court hearings, security personnel must also be available on short notice outside these times. The contract outlines various duties that may be performed before, after, or between scheduled events, ensuring that security forces are actively engaged in and ready to respond to potential threats within the court precincts. The contracting authority seeks to enable the contractor to operate efficiently, minimizing disruptions, while upholding a high standard of security and adhering to principles of economical and efficient resource management.

This is a services contract in the security and defense and legal services sectors, with a focus on Private Security and Justice Reform. Located in Germany, Europe, this opportunity is open to firms and consortiums.
