Description

The Seattle Convention Center is seeking a qualified private‑security firm to provide both armed, uniformed public‑safety officers (law‑enforcement and traffic‑control duties) and unarmed security personnel for events held at the convention center. The contractor must be licensed in Washington, able to staff 24 × 7 with a one‑hour response window, and meet strict qualifications for armed officers (active or retired peace officers certified by the Washington State Criminal Justice Training Commission). The contract is a firm‑price, indefinite‑delivery agreement with a base term of four years (Jan 1 2027 – Dec 31 2030) and up to six optional one‑year extensions. Compensation will be on an hourly‑rate basis, with invoicing required within 48 hours after each event and payment within 30 days. • Provide armed uniformed public‑safety officers for law‑enforcement and traffic‑control at SCC events. • Provide unarmed security officers as requested, with 24/7 readiness and ≤ 1‑hour deployment notice. • Maintain required Washington private‑security license, insurance coverage (CGL $1M, Employers‑Liability $1M, Workers’ Comp, Business Auto, Professional Liability), and staff qualifications (active/retired peace officers, basic life support certified).

Budget estimate

$2,000,000 – $5,000,000

The solicitation does not disclose a total contract ceiling; payment will be based on hourly rates for various labor classes (armed officer, unarmed guard, traffic control). Assuming typical Seattle rates of $35‑$45/hr for unarmed guards, $70‑$90/hr for armed officers, and an average staffing level of 40 hours per event across 30 events per year, the annual spend could range from $2 M to $4 M. Over the four‑year base term this yields an approximate contract value of $8 M‑$16 M. Factoring optional extensions and potential rate adjustments, a reasonable ball‑park estimate for the contractor’s earnings is $2 M – $5 M per year.
