OCS Group UK will be providing specialist security and alarm monitoring services from April as part of HM Courts & Tribunals Service (HCTS) recently announced £1 billion reform programme.
HMCTS has invested in new contracts to deliver more time efficient, consistent and user-focused services across its sites.
OCS will work alongside the service to mobilise the transition period which will see representatives meet to aid the introduction of new processes and solutions offered by the organisation.
The contract will see the delivery of guarding, key holding, CCTV alarm monitoring and alarm response under a comprehensive security offering, in sites which are in constant demand and see heavy footfall.
Commenting, Justice Minister, Chris Philp MP, said: “These new contracts will modernise and enhance the experience of all those using our courts and tribunals, delivering more user-friendly services.
“Our justice system is one of the most advanced in the world and this Government is committed to ensuring it stays that way.”
Bob Taylor, CEO of OCS UK Ireland and Middle East added: “We are delighted to be awarded the contract to provide security services across the estate and are excited to work with HMCTS to transform and modernise the security service and enhance the experience of courts and tribunals users.”
