Notice Description

The Authority requires a Supplier to ensure reports undertaken by His Majesty's Crown Prosecution Service Inspectorate are seen as professionally presented as well as being factually correct and robust when subject to scrutiny. His Majesty's Crown Prosecution Service Inspectorate (HMCPSI) inspects the work carried out by the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) and other prosecuting agencies. We are independent from these organisations with completely separate funding. Our independence from government and the agencies we inspect enables us to identify weaknesses.

HMCPSI is keen to ensure that these are seen as professionally presented as well as being factually correct and robust when subject to scrutiny.
