Summary of the contracting process

The Scottish Police Authority sought tenders for the "Police Scotland Cyber Training and Capability" project, classified under Information Technology Services (CPV: 72222300) and aimed at providing specialised cyber training for officers and staff. The procurement process was conducted through an open procedure, with part of the submission method being electronic. The procurement covers multiple lots, including Foundation, Cryptocurrency, Dark Web – Intermediate and Advanced, Economic Crime, Ethical Hacking, Incident Handling – Intermediate and Advanced, Malware, and Neurodiversity. Notably, the process reached the award stage but was cancelled as of 6th September 2024. The deadlines and key dates had amendments, including extensions to submission dates to accommodate tenderers, but ultimately, no contracts were successfully awarded.

This tender represented a significant growth opportunity for businesses specialising in cyber training and IT services, especially those with a focus on law enforcement or public safety sectors. Companies experienced in providing high-quality, technical training and capable of delivering varied and comprehensive cyber training programs would have been well-suited to compete. Firms offering innovative training solutions, particularly with gamified learning or those adept at handling emerging issues like cryptocurrency and the dark web, had the potential to secure substantial, long-term contracts with renewal options, supporting sustained business growth.
