The procurement process undertaken by the Police Digital Service in England for the role of a Cyber Architect Consultant has reached the award stage. The contract, classified under public security, law, and order services (CPV code: 75240000), was conducted through a selective procurement method as a call-off from a framework agreement. The contract, valued at £105,600, commenced on 21st July 2025 and is set to conclude on 20th January 2026. The tendering process concluded on 18th July 2025, making this a completed procurement. The Police Digital Service, located in London, acted as the buying organisation, and the opportunity was open to small and medium enterprises (SMEs).

Given the contract's value and its focus on selective procurement, businesses with a proven record in similar frameworks are well-positioned to benefit. Companies operating as SMEs, like Permanent Futures Ltd, the awarded supplier based in Leeds, would find these opportunities conducive to expanding their portfolios in public sector engagements, thus facilitating considerable business growth within the governmental and public security domains.
