Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Police Digital Service procured an interim Demand Manager resource. This is a professional IT service focused on demand management, within the wider field of IT consulting, software development, internet and support services (CPV 72000000). The requirement is classified as a service and is intended for delivery in the United Kingdom. The buying organisation is the Police Digital Service, based in London. The work concerns providing temporary demand-management capability rather than a specified software product, construction activity or physical goods supply. It is therefore relevant to consultancies, specialist interim-resource providers and individual professional services businesses able to supply a Demand Manager for a public-sector digital and technology environment.

The procurement has been completed and awarded. It used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement. The award was made on 14 August 2026 to Permanent Futures Ltd. for GBP 132,240. The contract period runs from 17 August 2026 to 31 March 2027. The tender had a submission deadline of 14 August 2026 at 17:00. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and not reserved for voluntary, community or social enterprises. The selected supplier is an SME. The published outcome records an active award and a completed tender, with the requirement evaluated through the framework call-off process.

This award demonstrates that the Police Digital Service buys interim demand-management capability through a framework call-off, creating a useful reference point for suppliers targeting similar requirements from this buyer. A credible future competitor would need to provide an effective Demand Manager resource able to operate in an IT consulting and digital-services setting. Relevant businesses include specialist interim-management providers, technology consultancies and SMEs with access to suitably experienced demand-management professionals. The requirement is focused on people and professional capability rather than supplying a product, so suppliers should be able to present a dependable resource who can support the buyer’s technology demand-management needs and work within a public-sector digital environment.
