Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "Plumstead - VRI" contract involves the refurbishment of video recording interview suites by the Metropolitan Police Service, based in Sidcup, England. The main industry category is construction work, with activities to be carried out in London, United Kingdom. This contract, which reached the award stage on September 2, 2025, with Vinci Construction UK Ltd as the supplier, is part of a selective procurement method executed through a call-off from a framework agreement. The construction works are valued at £160,349.60 and are set to commence on September 12, 2025, concluding by November 18, 2025.

This contract represents significant opportunities for businesses in the construction sector, particularly those specializing in interior refurbishments. Companies that are well-suited to engage with this type of work are likely to be skilled in creating secure and functional environments to enhance operational efficiency and comfort. Although the primary contract was awarded to a large construction firm, Vinci Construction UK Ltd, the focus on small and medium enterprises suggests potential subcontracting opportunities for smaller companies with relevant expertise. Businesses keen on leveraging framework agreements for such refurbishment projects in the public sector would find this a model example of growth potential and sector engagement.

Notice Title

Plumstead - VRI

Notice Description

The video recording interview (VRI) refurbishment programme aims to provide VRI suite users with a more comfortable, functional and effective environment in which to conduct interviews. The priority of this programme of works is to ensure a high-quality offering is established. The design specification aims to create a secure, enclosed VRI suite that prevents unnecessary movement in and out of the space during interviews, while restricting access to general station staff to minimise disruptions, in line with the latest design standards.
