Summary of the contracting process

Norfolk Constabulary has completed the procurement process for the renewal of a DNS service under the CCS framework RM6167 for seven forces, designated as "PSN DNS". The procurement falls under the industry category of internet domain names (CPV Code 72417000) and internet network (CPV Code 32412110). The procurement was conducted via a selective method specifically through a call-off from a framework agreement. The contract, valued at GBP 48,663.69, encompasses services to be delivered primarily in the East of England with a delivery address in Wymondham (NR18 0WW), starting from 1st February 2025 and running until 31st January 2027. The award notice was published on 19th February 2025, and the award went active on 29th January 2025.

This tender provides a considerable opportunity for businesses involved in internet domain name services and internet network solutions to secure a multi-year service contract. Although the contract was awarded to Nominet UK, the procurement process highlights the importance of being part of relevant frameworks like the CCS, which can lead to selective procurement opportunities. Larger businesses with experience in managing extensive DNS services across multiple forces would be well-suited to compete for similar tenders in future. SMEs and VCSEs were not specifically targeted in this process, indicating a preference for more established suppliers capable of handling significant contracts.
