Summary of the contracting process

British Transport Police bought 1,000 Axon TASER X2 cartridges, product 22185, with a 25-foot range and smart capability. This is a goods procurement for police equipment and associated weapons, ammunition and parts. The items are for delivery to British Transport Police in London, at its Buckingham Palace Road address. The buying organisation is British Transport Police, which uses the equipment in support of its policing operations. The requirement was purchased through the UK Home Office’s National Framework for the Supply of Conducted Energy Devices and Associated Equipment, framework reference C23688. The named supplier is Axon Public Safety UK Limited, based in Daventry, Northamptonshire.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. British Transport Police used a selective call-off from a framework agreement rather than running an open tender. Axon Public Safety UK Limited received the award on 23 June 2026 for £47,350 including the stated contract value. The contract period runs from 24 June 2026 to 23 July 2026. The tender submission deadline was 23 June 2026. The requirement was identified as police equipment, with additional classification for weapons, ammunition and associated parts. The opportunity was considered suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, and the award was made to a single supplier. The contract covers the specified Axon TASER X2 cartridges rather than a broader equipment range.

This award demonstrates a defined requirement for specialist conducted-energy-device consumables within British Transport Police. A competitor seeking similar work would need to supply the specified Axon TASER X2 25-foot smart cartridges, meet the quantity requirement and operate through the relevant Home Office framework route. The scale of the purchase indicates that suppliers need dependable access to stock, fulfilment capacity for a substantial cartridge order and the ability to support a policing customer with tightly specified equipment. Framework eligibility and a credible supply relationship for Axon products would be central to competing for an equivalent requirement when this buyer next sources the same type of consumable. Smaller businesses were considered suitable for the procurement.
