Security Services at Zoo Boise

The City of Boise is soliciting proposals from licensed security firms to provide continuous nighttime guard services at Zoo Boise. The contract covers a full‑year of patrols (with optional one‑year renewals up to five years), requiring a single guard to work 14 hours each night (non‑operational hours), perform foot patrols, operate city‑owned vehicles as needed, and conduct additional night‑time checks at the Anne Frank Idaho Human Rights Memorial. The firm must hold a City Private Security Service license, ensure each guard possesses an Idaho driver’s license and a Guard Card, provide uniforms, night‑sticks, flashlights, and a cell phone for dispatch communication, and submit detailed daily, weekly, and monthly reports. Additional optional services include up to three hours of event patrol at Julia Davis Park and routine Saturday‑morning trash‑gate lock procedures. Proposals must be signed electronically and uploaded through the JAGGAER portal by the deadline. • 14 hours per night, 365 days per year – approx. 5,800 guard‑hours annually. • Single‑guard foot patrol with occasional vehicle use; night‑stick only (no firearms). • Required licensing: City Private Security Service license + individual Guard Card licenses. • Additional duties: overnight memorial checks, optional event patrols, weekly gate‑locking task. • Submission via JAGGAER; virtual proposal opening on Teams (May 27 2026).
