Unarmed Transit Security Officers

The Milwaukee County Transit System is seeking proposals from qualified firms to provide unarmed, uniformed security services supported by contractor-supplied vehicles. The primary goal is to ensure the safety and security of riders, employees, visitors, facilities, and property across various transit locations, including buses and park-and-ride lots throughout Wisconsin. The selected contractor will be responsible for deploying professional patrol officers who are capable of responding swiftly to emergencies, fare disputes, ordinance violations, and quality-of-life issues, maintaining a tactful and professional demeanor at all times. Services will encompass both foot and vehicular patrols, emphasizing visibility and proactive security measures. Proposals must be submitted by August 22, 2025, and the contract is valued between five million and fifteen million dollars. The project emphasizes operational and management standards outlined in the RFP and its attachments, with the contractor expected to adhere strictly to these guidelines. The initiative is part of Milwaukee County’s efforts to enhance transit safety and security, and interested firms can access additional details through the provided online link. The contract is managed under the NAICS code 315210, indicating a focus on apparel manufacturing, but in this context, it relates to security uniform services, with the project overseen by Wisconsin’s Milwaukee County Transit System.
