Summary of the contracting process

Leicestershire Police, based in Leicester, England, has completed the award stage of a procurement process entitled "Financial Management System". This process involved acquiring a comprehensive software package and information systems solution, which includes infrastructure, hardware, system software, and associated services such as monitoring, management, and maintenance. The contract, valued at £213,000, spans from 1st December 2025 to 30th November 2028 and is specific to the East Midlands region of the United Kingdom. The procurement method employed was "selective", as a call-off from a framework agreement, and SOFTCAT PLC, a large entity located in Marlow, Buckinghamshire, has been appointed as the supplier.

This procurement opportunity could provide significant growth potential for businesses specialising in software solutions and IT infrastructure, particularly those with capabilities in financial management systems. While this specific contract did not prioritise SMEs or VCSEs, businesses that have robust frameworks for delivering complex IT services and are proficient in maintaining high-availability systems could have substantial competitive advantages. Companies that can offer similar capabilities may find future opportunities by engaging in framework agreements that Leicestershire Police or similar organisations might establish or renew.
