Summary of the contracting process

The Leicestershire Police has completed a public procurement process for IT services, specifically the migration and on-going management of their servers from the Leicestershire Police Data Centre to Azure cloud using Azure VMware technology. This contract was awarded to ANS Group Limited. Categorised under IT services, the contract falls within the industry classification of consulting, software development, Internet and support. Located in Leicester, with postal code LE19 2BX, the contract's procurement stage was marked as 'Award', reflective of its status being complete. The selective procurement was conducted via a call-off from a framework agreement, with the contract period set to commence on 14th May 2025 and conclude on 13th May 2027. The tender for this procurement formally ended on 13th May 2025, transitioning into the contract award phase shortly thereafter.

This procurement process creates significant opportunities for businesses specialising in IT services, particularly those experienced in and equipped for cloud migration and server management projects. Large-scale IT service providers, like ANS Group Limited, would be well-suited for this type of contract given its scale and the requirement for a comprehensive approach to IT infrastructure management. Though the procurement has presently culminated in an award, similar contracts may recur, presenting future opportunities for firms conversant with public sector IT needs. Companies not only benefit from the contractual employment but also gain prestige and recognition through successful partnerships with authoritative buyers such as the Leicestershire Police.
