Notice Title

Specialist Police Competencies and Assets

Notice Description

This Framework Agreement is intended to enable forces to buy systems that support them in managing police competencies, managing police assets and delivering a number of non-functional requirements. Training Records Capture and Management - The systems are required to support the capture and management of training records for specialist police competencies - firearms use, dog handling, public order, command, blue light driving and other key operational policing competencies, that are prescribed by the College of Policing, and that Forces must keep detailed records about in order to fulfil their statutory role. Asset Management - The systems are also required to support the management of specialist police assets, examples include firearms, dogs, technical surveillance equipment, specialist forensic tools, ANPR cameras, specialist vehicles, and others. These are assets that are in limited supply, that need to be kept securely, that need to be locatable 24 hours a day, that need to be disposed of in a controlled manner, that we need to keep records of where they are used, and that require specialist competencies to operate. Non-Functional Requirements - There are other non-functional requirements that apply to both training records and asset management. The full specification and requirements are included in the ITT. Note the value of this procurement is between PS5mil - PS16mil. The lower limit is based on the performance of the current framework; and the upper limit is to ensure the OJEU value is set at a sufficient amount to allow for any unanticipated uplift. The Framework Agreement will be available for use by all UK Police Forces (see link for list) - https://www.police.uk/forces/ Additional information: The procurement documents are available for unrestricted and full direct access, free of charge, at: https://uk.eu-supply.com/app/rfq/rwlentrance_s.asp?PID=34127&B=BLUELIGHT
