Property Protection — Public Procurement

Property protection comprises the physical safeguarding of public sector buildings, installations and sites. Contracting authorities include public agencies, the German Armed Forces (Bundeswehr), energy suppliers and operators of critical infrastructure. Services range from perimeter security and alarm systems through to combined manned guarding and technical security systems.

Challenges in tender discovery

Property protection appears in tenders under labels such as "site security", "perimeter protection", "burglary protection", "security technology" or "mechanical and electronic security". The combination of technical and manned services means that relevant awards appear under different CPV categories.

Requirements for VdS conformity, BSI guidelines and KRITIS regulation (German critical infrastructure rules) are often only visible in the tender documentation rather than in the contract notice text.
