The contract is a one‑year initial term beginning 1 Jan 2027, with the option to renew up to four additional one‑year periods, requiring a $200,000 performance security each year. The vendor must staff guards and supervisors, manage shift rotations, provide radios and uniforms, conduct background checks, health exams, and submit detailed monthly reports and invoices. Small‑business participation is mandated at 25 % of the contract value. • Provide unarmed guard coverage for residence halls (overnight), academic buildings, and special events (≈ 8‑10 events per semester). • Maintain required insurance levels (e.g., $1 M general liability, $5 M umbrella) and a $200 k performance bond annually. • Deliver a transition plan, hourly rate pricing for Guard I and Guard II for up to five years, and comply with extensive New Jersey procurement, EEO, and security regulations.

Budget estimate

$1,500,000 – $3,000,000

No total award amount is disclosed, but the contract covers extensive 24/7 guard coverage across several campuses, multiple residence halls, and special events. Assuming an average of 30 guards and 5 supervisors, each working ~160 hours per month at rates between $20‑$35 per hour, annual labor costs could range from $1.2 M to $2.5 M. Including insurance, performance security, and administrative fees, the total contract value is likely between $1.5 M and $3 M over the initial one‑year term, scaling upward with renewals.
