Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for "GPS Tagging Services," initiated by Nottinghamshire Police, falls under the Global Navigation and Positioning Systems industry category. This tender, which is located in the East Midlands, United Kingdom, has progressed to the Award stage. The contract was awarded to Buddi Limited on 16 January 2026, with the procurement being conducted through a selective method via a call-off from the Crown Commercial Services G Cloud 14 Framework. The contract commences on 1 February 2026 and concludes on 31 January 2028, with a total value of £165,120. The procurement primarily targets the provision of small, lightweight GPS tracking devices for tagging purposes, either voluntarily or mandated by court order.

This tender provides significant growth opportunities for businesses in the GPS devices sector, particularly those capable of supplying lightweight tracking technology suited for law enforcement applications. While Buddi Limited was the successful supplier, the contract's structure—suitable for small and medium enterprises (SMEs)—and the potential requirement for additional devices during its term suggest continued opportunities for suppliers operating within frameworks. Businesses that specialise in navigation and positioning systems and are adept at engaging through government frameworks like the G Cloud would be well-suited to compete for similar opportunities in future procurement cycles.
