Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Police Digital Service procured an interim project manager resource for information technology services, classified under CPV 72222300. The requirement is for project management support connected with the buyer’s digital and technology work. Delivery is in the United Kingdom. The procurement is categorised as a service and was suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The buyer is the Police Digital Service, based in London. The selected supplier, Permanent Futures Ltd., is a small enterprise based in Horsforth, Leeds. This is therefore relevant to recruitment, consultancy and professional services businesses that provide interim project managers for public sector technology programmes, particularly suppliers able to operate across the UK and work within a police or wider public service digital environment.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. The Police Digital Service used a selective procedure through a call-off from a framework agreement. Permanent Futures Ltd. was awarded the contract on 31 July 2026 for £72,000. The contract period runs from 3 August 2026 to 31 March 2027. The tender submission deadline was 31 July 2026 at 12:00. The procurement was evaluated as an information technology service requirement for an interim project manager resource. The award is active, with the selected supplier identified as Permanent Futures Ltd. The stated SME suitability indicates that smaller businesses were considered appropriate for this type and scale of requirement.

For a supplier that did not win this award, the procurement demonstrates demand from the Police Digital Service for interim project management capability in information technology. A credible competitor would need to provide an experienced project manager who can enter an existing public sector technology environment, take responsibility for delivery and work effectively with digital, operational and stakeholder teams. Relevant evidence would include successful management of technology projects, rapid mobilisation for interim assignments, clear reporting, risk and issue management, and the ability to deliver through a public sector framework call-off. The opportunity was considered suitable for an SME, so a focused specialist consultancy or recruitment provider may be well placed to compete when comparable requirements return.
