Summary of the contracting process

In the recent procurement process, the Police Digital Service, located at 20 Gresham Street, London, England, has successfully awarded a contract titled "Enterprise Architect" within the IT services category, such as consulting and software development. This award, published on 2nd April 2026, marks the completion of the procurement stage, following a selective method through a call-off from a framework agreement. The awarding was concluded on 31st March 2026 with the contract's execution scheduled from 1st April to 30th September 2026, offering services throughout the United Kingdom. The tender aligns with services for enterprise architecture and seeks interim resources, valuing an amount of GBP 167,580.
