Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process, initiated by the Police Digital Service, involves the tendering of a "Covert Management System" to supply software services for UK Policing. This multi-supplier framework agreement, expected to last for four years and valued at approximately £10 million, commenced on 8 September 2021. As part of the open procurement method, the process was designed to facilitate submissions from potential suppliers until the deadline of 14 May 2021.

Businesses that offer modular software solutions or have experience working with emergency services would be particularly well-suited to compete in this procurement process, given the framework’s intention to extend its services to other emergency sectors in the future.
