Summary of the contracting process

Durham Constabulary has completed the award phase of a public procurement process for a consultancy project titled "Process Evolution Consultancy - Local Policing". This project, classified under the business and management consultancy services industry, aims at addressing demands within local policing teams and critical supporting functions. This contract was awarded via a direct call-off from the Mid and South Essex NHS Foundation Trust Framework Agreement to the supplier, Operational Research in Health Ltd. The consultancy services are set to be delivered in the North East region of the United Kingdom, with the contract commencing on 11th May 2026 and concluding on 31st October 2026. The total contract value is £161,000.

This tender represents a substantial opportunity for businesses in the consultancy industry, particularly those focusing on management and process evolution services. While the contract was selectively procured through a framework agreement, businesses with capabilities in delivering strategic insights and improvements for public sector organisations might find similar opportunities by engaging with framework agreements and building relationships with public bodies like Durham Constabulary. Large-scale organisations that can offer comprehensive, evidence-based consultancy solutions would be well-suited to compete in such procurement processes to facilitate business growth and market presence in the public sector.
