Armed Security Guard Services

The Louisiana government authority is seeking armed security guard services to ensure the safety of its office, parking lot, and building perimeter. The agency needs guards to respond to emergencies such as fire alarms and bomb threats while strictly enforcing safety and emergency procedures. Guards must arrive on duty at 8:00 AM, sign in, unlock entry doors, and conduct initial inspections of the parking area and building perimeter. The scope of work requires guards to inspect all bags of visitors entering the premises to prevent weapons or harmful objects from being brought inside. Guards must remain alert at all times, standing by during client interviews and periodically checking the Child Welfare lobby and receptionist areas. Additional duties include monitoring the handicapped parking spaces, state vehicle parking areas, and designated fire lanes. The agency limits eligibility to onshore organizations based in the United States. The performance of the work will take place offsite at the authority's designated Louisiana location. The agency has not disclosed a specific budget and is currently looking for proposals to determine the cost of these services.
