Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Metropolitan Police Service, through the Mayor's Office for Policing and Crime, has completed a procurement process for Forensic Pathology Services to support their operations in Greater London. This tender was initiated as a limited procurement method, specifically designed to award a contract without prior publication of a call for competition. The awarded contract, valued at £6.3 million, is currently active and was signed on 3rd May 2022. The service category falls under Pathology Services (CPV code 85111800), and all related operations are being coordinated from their offices located at Kilburn Police Station, London.

This procurement offers substantial business growth opportunities for suppliers specialising in forensic pathology, particularly those registered with the Home Office. As the procurement method was limited and awarded to a single supplier, businesses that are capable of meeting the specific technical requirements established by the Metropolitan Police Service will find this a lucrative opportunity. Given the technical nature of the services and the associated complexities, firms with extensive experience in forensic pathology within the UK's public safety sector are particularly well-placed to compete for similar future contracts.
