The contract, valued at BRL 22.05 billion, was awarded on 22 July 2026 and will remain valid for one year.

The procurement covers continuous, unarmed property surveillance services with round-the-clock coverage at the municipal bus terminal.

Municipal Security Services Contract Award

According to the award details, Cross Segurança Ltda was selected under Process No. 159 to provide specialized surveillance services at the Caratinga Municipal Bus Terminal.

The contract has a reported value of BRL 22,047,666,127.10 and is valid from 22 July 2026 to 22 July 2027. The procurement is classified under the Services category and is registered through Brazil's National Public Procurement Portal (PNCP).

The contract requires security coverage under a 12x36 work schedule, providing uninterrupted protection 24 hours a day through four continuous surveillance posts.

Continuous Protection for Bus Terminal

Municipal bus terminals are high-traffic public facilities that require reliable security to protect passengers, employees, infrastructure, and public property. Continuous surveillance can help deter unauthorized access, vandalism, theft, and other incidents while supporting a safer environment for terminal users.

Under the awarded agreement, Cross Segurança will provide unarmed property surveillance services, with personnel deployed across four uninterrupted security points.

The one-year contract provides the municipality with a structured framework for maintaining security coverage throughout the terminal's daily operations.

Cross Segurança Secures the Award

Brazil-based Cross Segurança Ltda was selected as the successful service provider. The company will be responsible for supplying the required surveillance personnel and maintaining the specified coverage schedule throughout the contract period.

The award demonstrates the continued role of specialized private security companies in supporting municipal infrastructure and public facilities across Brazil.

Public Procurement and Local Impact

Security services are an important component of municipal infrastructure management, particularly at facilities with continuous public access. Effective surveillance can contribute to improved safety, asset protection, and operational continuity.

The contract is also expected to support employment within the local security services sector through the deployment of personnel required to maintain the four continuous surveillance points.

Looking Ahead

With the contract effective from 22 July 2026, Cross Segurança Ltda is expected to provide uninterrupted surveillance services at the Caratinga Municipal Bus Terminal for the one-year validity period. The agreement highlights Caratinga's focus on maintaining secure and well-managed public transportation infrastructure.
