Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Police Digital Service procured an interim Engagement Manager resource. This is a professional IT consulting service, within the broader field of software development, internet and support services (CPV 72000000). The work supports engagement management for the Police Digital Service and is delivered in the United Kingdom. The procurement is categorised as a service requirement and was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The selected supplier, Permanent Futures Ltd., is a small or medium-sized enterprise based in Leeds. The buying organisation is the Police Digital Service, whose address is in London. The requirement concerns an individual interim management resource rather than the supply of software, equipment or general IT support.

The procurement has been completed and awarded to Permanent Futures Ltd. The award was made on 14 August 2026, following a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The tender submission deadline was 14 August 2026 at 5:00pm. The awarded value is £132,240. The contract runs from 17 August 2026 to 31 March 2027. The award is active and the tender status is complete. This was a single service requirement rather than a multi-lot procurement. The evaluation basis and detailed eligibility requirements are set through the relevant framework call-off arrangements. The award provides a clear example of the Police Digital Service using a framework route to appoint an interim engagement management resource.

This award indicates demand from the Police Digital Service for interim engagement management within a digital and IT environment. A credible future competitor would need to provide an experienced engagement manager who can operate as an interim resource, work with a public-sector digital service and support stakeholder engagement around technology, software development, internet or support services. Suppliers should be able to demonstrate relevant consulting and engagement-management experience, with the capacity to provide a suitably skilled individual rather than only an outsourced team or technical product. Small and medium-sized businesses are well placed by the stated suitability of the requirement. Experience of supplying through framework agreements, and readiness to respond to selective call-offs, would also be commercially relevant for this buyer.
