Description
This contract calls for a private security firm to provide armed guard and armored‑truck services for the movement of cash, checks, and other negotiable items for all Cuyahoga County departments, agencies, and elected officials.

The contract runs for three years beginning 1 Jan 2022 and ending 31 Dec 2025, with a mandatory 90‑day proposal validity and a requirement that the winning vendor deliver a signed contract within 14 days of award.
