Octavian Security reports a two-year contract to provide security for the redevelopment of Gloucester Quays.
The Nottingham-based security firm has been appointed by the regeneration project’s construction management contractor Bovis Lend Lease, to provide 24-hour security for the site while the £110m development is in progress. The contractor says it will mobilise a 43-man team, including a dedicated site manager and supervisors, to provide access and egress control, security consultancy and an alarm and incident response service. Octavian has been an approved supplier to the builder since 2005. The contract will be overseen by Octavian Security‚s operations and training director, Jot Engelbrecht.
What they say
He says of the win: “Gloucester Quays is doubly significant for Octavian as not only is it our largest single win of 2007 that we have secured against some of our largest competitors, but it’s for a blue chip client to work on one of its own largest projects. We are already working with Bovis Lend Lease on a number of other projects, and so it is rewarding to see that the company has been impressed enough with our service to award us with the handling of such a large security brief.”
The security company announced recently its Vancouver office.
