Summary of the contracting process

Cheshire Constabulary commissioned services for its Protecting Vulnerable People team, covering monitoring tags and victim clips used in stalking-related electronic monitoring. The requirement is for the supply and associated support of monitoring technology rather than general policing or construction work. It is classified under software packages and information systems, although the practical requirement centres on physical monitoring tags and clips. Delivery is associated with the constabulary’s base at Oakmere Road, Winsford, Cheshire, and extends across the United Kingdom, Europe, the Channel Islands, the Isle of Man, British Overseas Territories and other worldwide locations. The buying organisation is Cheshire Constabulary, serving policing and safeguarding purposes through its Protecting Vulnerable People team.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. Cheshire Constabulary used the GCloud 14 framework, through an other procurement method, and the requirement was evaluated and awarded to Buddi Ltd. The award date was 20 August 2026. The procurement’s stated value was £51,840 GBP, while the award value was recorded as £0 GBP. The awarded contract period runs from 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2028. The original tender submission deadline was 7 August 2026 at 10:35. The contract is for services and was treated as unsuitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprises. The award is active.

This outcome identifies a specialist policing requirement for suppliers able to provide stalking-monitoring technology, including wearable or attachable monitoring tags and victim clips, together with the operational support needed by a vulnerable-people protection team. A credible competitor for similar work would need a proven product that can be deployed reliably across varied locations, supports safeguarding and victim protection, and can meet public-sector information and service requirements. Experience supplying police forces, victim-monitoring services or other sensitive public-sector users would strengthen market credibility. Suppliers would also need access to the relevant public-sector purchasing route, or a route into future framework-based procurement, and the capacity to support a multi-year service rather than a one-off equipment sale.
