Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Greater Manchester Police procured Oracle E-Business Suite software support and managed services. The requirement covers ongoing support and managed service provision for its Oracle EBS environment, rather than the supply of new software. It is a technology services contract, classified under software support services (CPV 72261000). Delivery is for Greater Manchester Police in the North West of England. The buyer is Greater Manchester Police, headquartered in Manchester. The opportunity is relevant to IT service providers with practical capability in Oracle E-Business Suite support, service management and the operation of managed application services for a public-sector organisation.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a selective call-off from the CCS G-Cloud 14 framework. Bids were due by 1 August 2026 at 12:00. Greater Manchester Police awarded the contract to Version 1 Solutions Limited on 7 August 2026. The awarded value is £331,171, and the contract runs from 14 August 2026 to 13 August 2030. The procurement was evaluated as a services requirement and was suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, but not reserved for voluntary, community or social enterprises. This is a single requirement with no separate lots reported. The award is active.

This award demonstrates a sustained requirement from Greater Manchester Police for specialist Oracle E-Business Suite support and managed services at a substantial, multi-year scale. It provides a clear benchmark for suppliers preparing for a future opportunity with this buyer: credible competitors would need demonstrable Oracle EBS expertise, the capacity to provide dependable ongoing application support, and mature managed-service operations. Experience of supporting business-critical systems in a public-sector or similarly regulated environment would strengthen a supplier’s position. Small and medium-sized enterprises were considered suitable for the requirement, so a capable specialist or suitably experienced SME could compete through the relevant framework route. Familiarity with CCS G-Cloud call-offs would also be commercially useful.
