The building management contract for Northside Civic Centre was publicly advertised and, following a pre-qualification process, tenders were invited from a number of suitable firms and a contract was placed. The security service was part of the building management service and not a separate tender competition. The management service will be re-advertised and tendered publicly this year. The security aspect of the service contract will again be part of the tender.
