Summary of the contracting process

The College of Policing Limited is seeking suppliers to conduct studies aimed at enhancing the selection and assessment processes for ethnic minority candidates. The procurement process, initiated as a tender, encompasses two specific studies (Lots 2 and 3) related to understanding the performance and experience of these candidates during initial assessments and promotion exams. The tender was closed on 26th November 2021, with the awarded contract valued at £101,850, applicable from 28th January 2022 to 1st July 2022. This procurement falls under the research and development services category, and the method used was a selective approach via a framework agreement, situated in London, England.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses involved in research and consultancy services, particularly those focusing on diversity, equality, and recruitment processes. Suppliers with expertise in social research, data analysis, and an understanding of the challenges faced by ethnic minorities in assessment contexts would be particularly well-positioned to engage in such contracts. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are encouraged to consider this opportunity, as it aligns with current public procurement strategies that aim to enhance supplier diversity and capacity.
