Summary of the contracting process

The Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI) is currently in the planning stage of a procurement process titled "PSNI - Road Safety Camera Scheme and Fixed Penalty Processing Centre Services". This tender involves the procurement of services to support the Northern Ireland Road Safety Partnership Safety Camera Scheme and the Fixed Penalty Processing Centre. The industry category is primarily focused on administration, police, public law and order, and security services. The involvement of PSNI and the Department of Finance NI, CPD - Supplies & Services Division highlights its centrality to Northern Ireland's central government agenda, governed by Northern Irish devolved regulations. The process is expected to be active in the region of Northern Ireland (UKN), beginning with a supplier engagement event scheduled for the week starting 12 May 2025. The procurement is set to accommodate small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), with the maximum contract period extending until 6 March 2034 and an estimated contract value of up to GBP 16.8 million.

This tender presents significant opportunities for growth, particularly for businesses that specialise in service delivery within the administration, law enforcement, and public safety sectors. Companies with expertise in managing security services or handling public law and order could find this project particularly suited to their capabilities. Given its suitability for SMEs, smaller businesses committed to providing high-quality services in the specified sectors should consider participating in the pre-market engagement exercise to understand the project's scope further and potentially secure a long-term government contract. The procurement approach used by the PSNI allows for extensive engagement with potential providers pre-tender, fostering innovation and adaptability in the proposal process.
