Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process initiated by the Metropolitan Police Service focuses on the support and maintenance of the MPS CRIMINT application, as detailed in the tender "Support and maintenance of the MPS CRIMINT application" and "Crimint Support". Both contracts fall under the industry category of software-related services and cover the location of the United Kingdom. The procurement method utilised is a direct award due to SAS SOFTWARE LIMITED being the sole provider of the required licences and owning the intellectual property rights. The award notices were published on 15th May 2025 and 25th March 2025, respectively, with key dates including standstill and contract periods spanning from 28th May 2025 to 6th April 2026 for the second award and 7th April 2025 to 6th April 2026 for the first award.

This tender presents substantial business growth opportunities, particularly for large-scale enterprises specialising in information systems and software-related services who have the capability to support legacy systems and strategic IT planning. The direct award strategy indicates a stable partnership between the Metropolitan Police Service and SAS SOFTWARE LIMITED, suggesting opportunities for businesses that can offer proprietary solutions. Firms with expertise in systems and support services or the ability to provide technology strategic reviews stand to benefit from such high-value contracts, as evidenced by the £2,050,000 gross value of the awards.
