Before you bid on security tenders

By law, security operatives working under contract must hold and display a valid SIA licence, and the Security Industry Authority prosecutes companies that supply unlicensed guards. Expect to be asked how you check licences.

Guarding contracts often change hands with their staff, so check whether TUPE applies: gov.uk says it can when a service moves from one contractor to another.
