When you use a state contract, you have the security of all its protections, and the security of knowing that the state's contract administrator is available for you to turn to for guidance and for help with any problems, concerns, or issues.
Contract benefits for SECURITY GUARD SERVICES:
• This is a TWO-TIER contract with pre-qualified contractors and not-to-exceed hourly pricing for the guards. Other items requested may have a secondary price (i.e. vehicles - but vehicle insurance is a contract requirement, so you should not be charged for it).
• The second-tier competition for your security guard needs is managed and evaluated by you, because you know your needs better than anyone else. (The CCI has detailed information on what to do.)
• Contractors are categorized by type (armed or unarmed) and region served.
• You do not have to go through the time and expense of doing your own full-blown competition for a multi-page contract - that's already been done for you!
Data Searched. The Vendor search function will only filter on Vendor Name.
Match words out of order. For example if you search for Computer Equipment it would match a row containing the words Computer and Equipment, regardless of the order or position that they appear in the table.
Partial word matching. As the contract search table provides on-the-fly filtering with immediate feedback to the user, parts of words can be matched in the result set. For example Com will match Computer.
Preserved text. The search function has the ability to search for an exact phrase by enclosing the search text in double quotes. For example "Computer Equipment" will match only text which contains the phrase Computer Equipment. It will not match Computer IT Equipment.
Combine search types. You can also mix and match these search types. For example "Computer Equipment" Technology or "Computer Equipment", Technology will match only text which contains the phrase Computer Equipment and also matches the word Technology. It will not match a record containing only the phrase Computer Equipment or a record matching only the word Technology.
Multi-Column Sorting. You can execute multi-column sorting by holding the SHIFT key while you click the table column headings.
