Summary of the contracting process

The Police Digital Service procured an interim Business Intelligence Consultant resource. This is a professional information technology service, covering business intelligence consultancy rather than a supply of software, equipment or construction works. The requirement is intended to provide temporary specialist capability to support the buyer’s business intelligence needs. Delivery is in the United Kingdom. The buying organisation is the Police Digital Service, based in London. The procurement is categorised as services and is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. It provides a useful indication of the type of interim analytical and business intelligence support the Police Digital Service engages for its operations.

The procurement has been completed and awarded. It used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement. The contract was awarded to Permanent Futures Ltd on 10 July 2026 for £116,640 GBP. The contract period runs from 13 July 2026 to 31 January 2027. The tender submission deadline was 10 July 2026 at 5:00 pm. The selected supplier is an active award recipient, and the tender status is complete. The requirement was evaluated through the framework call-off route. This was a single interim consultant requirement rather than a procurement divided into separate lots or awards.

This opportunity indicates demand from the Police Digital Service for an SME-capable provider of interim Business Intelligence consultancy. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to supply an experienced consultant who can work effectively within a public-sector digital and technology environment, understand business intelligence requirements, and provide temporary specialist capacity. Providers with a clear capability in information technology services and access to suitably qualified interim consultants would be relevant. The framework call-off route is commercially important: suppliers seeking comparable work with this buyer would need an appropriate framework position and the ability to respond to selective call-off competitions. The awarded supplier was an SME.
