Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "Digital Police Station Contract," facilitated by the Ministry of Defence, involves the provision of an Online Reporting Tool for Non-Emergency Crime. This falls under the industry category of software packages and information systems, with the procurement reaching the award stage. The process used a limited procurement method without prior publication due to the protection of exclusive rights, resulting in the contract being directly awarded to Corporate Document Services Ltd on 3rd June 2025. The contract is valued at £1,630,000 and is designated for delivery within the United Kingdom.

This procurement represents a strategic opportunity for businesses specialising in software systems, particularly those able to deliver secure and exclusive technological solutions.

Large enterprises with the capacity to meet high-value contracts could gain a competitive advantage by seeking similar contracts that bypass the traditional competitive tendering process.
