Summary of the contracting process

South Yorkshire Police Headquarters procured Oracle Guided Learning and associated Oracle support services. The requirement falls within software packages and information systems (CPV 48000000) and is categorised as a service. Delivery is for South Yorkshire, in Yorkshire and the Humber. The procurement is intended to support the police headquarters’ use of Oracle systems through Oracle Guided Learning and related support. Oracle Corporation UK Limited was the supplier selected for the requirement. This is therefore relevant to businesses providing Oracle support, Oracle Guided Learning, software implementation or related information-system services, particularly those able to serve a police organisation in South Yorkshire through the relevant public-sector purchasing route.

This procurement has been awarded and is complete. It was a selective call-off from the RM6285 Back Office Solutions framework, described as a direct award for Oracle support. The tender deadline was 24 August 2026 at 17:00, and Oracle Corporation UK Limited was awarded the contract on 25 August 2026. The awarded value is £50,231. The contract runs from 4 September 2026 to 3 September 2027. The buyer is South Yorkshire Police Headquarters. The published outcome identifies one active award to Oracle Corporation UK Limited. The procurement data does not set out separate lots or an additional evaluation weighting; the route was a direct framework call-off rather than an open competition.

This award demonstrates a defined requirement for Oracle Guided Learning and Oracle support within South Yorkshire Police. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need demonstrable Oracle capability, including the ability to provide support around Oracle systems and deliver or configure Oracle Guided Learning. Experience of supplying software and information-system services to a public-sector organisation would be relevant, as would the operational capacity to support the requirement throughout a year-long service period. The route to market is also commercially important: suppliers would need access to, or an appropriate position within, the RM6285 Back Office Solutions framework to compete for a comparable call-off. The published suitability assessment records the opportunity as unsuitable for SMEs and VCSEs.
