Summary of the contracting process

West Yorkshire Combined Authority, acting on behalf of West Yorkshire Police, bought video enhancement software licences. The requirement is for software licences rather than a broader police technology service, with the stated purpose limited to video enhancement. The procurement is classified as software and information systems. Delivery is in Yorkshire and the Humber, England. The Combined Authority managed the purchase for the police authority, so suppliers specialising in video enhancement products and associated licensing are the most directly relevant. This is a goods requirement, not a works contract or a general-purpose software procurement.

The procurement is complete and a contract was awarded to INSIGHT DIRECT (UK) LTD on 9 September 2026. The award value was £40,242.75. The contract runs from 10 September 2026 to 9 October 2028, for an initial two-year period. The Combined Authority made the purchase as a selective call-off from the 2821-2022 Hardware Framework. The stated tender submission deadline was 9 September 2026. No lots or evaluation criteria are recorded in the published process information. The award is active, and the contract is for video enhancement licences for West Yorkshire Police.

This award shows demand from West Yorkshire Police for video enhancement licences, purchased through West Yorkshire Combined Authority using a call-off from its hardware framework. A supplier seeking to compete when this specific requirement returns to market would need to supply suitable video enhancement software and licence it for police use, with the capacity to support the buyer’s requirements across the contract period. The purchase was considered suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, and the selected supplier was an SME, indicating that this scale of software licensing was not limited to large firms. Businesses focused on video enhancement products and familiar with supplying through public-sector framework call-offs are best aligned with the requirement. No accreditation or specialist technical qualification is identified in the process information.
