Summary of the contracting process

The Ministry of Justice bought conductive energy devices and associated equipment, classed as anti-riot equipment and weapons, ammunition and associated parts. This is a goods requirement rather than a services or works contract. Delivery covers the United Kingdom, the Channel Islands, the Isle of Man, Europe, British Overseas Territories and the rest of the world. The requirement is intended for the Ministry of Justice’s operational use across these locations. The procurement relates to equipment in a controlled public-sector security and custodial context, so suppliers operating in the specialist security-equipment market are the relevant audience. The selected supplier is AXON PUBLIC SAFETY UK LIMITED.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. The Ministry of Justice used a selective procedure to make a call-off from the Conductive Energy Devices framework agreement. The tender deadline was 30 July 2026 at 23:59. The award was made on 15 August 2026 to AXON PUBLIC SAFETY UK LIMITED for £1,764,041. The contract runs from 15 August 2026 to 14 August 2029. The published procurement value and awarded value are both £1,764,041. The process covers a single goods requirement, with no lot division stated. The opportunity was assessed through the framework call-off route, rather than as a new open competition. It was not identified as suitable for SMEs or voluntary, community and social enterprises.

This award shows sustained Ministry of Justice demand for conductive energy devices and related security equipment at substantial national and international delivery scale. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to supply specialist controlled equipment, associated components and support items reliably across the United Kingdom and other listed territories. The successful supplier’s large-company scale indicates that the buyer values the capacity to fulfil a sizeable, geographically broad order and manage delivery in a regulated public-sector environment. Relevant suppliers are likely to be established manufacturers or specialist distributors with experience of framework call-offs, public-sector procurement, secure supply chains, product compliance and operational equipment support. Firms focused on general security products, small-scale supply or unrelated weapons and ammunition would be less closely aligned with this requirement.
