Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process initiated by The Police and Crime Commissioner for Humberside involves a contract for a software package titled "Magnet Griffeye Advanced with Lace Carver Plugin," under the industry category of Software Package and Information Systems. The procurement involves the acquisition of 18 Magnet Griffeye Advanced floating licenses and 18 LACE Carver plugins for a duration of three years. The process has reached the Award stage, with the contract being awarded to Phoenix Software Ltd. The contract was signed on 27th April 2025, and its value amounts to £154,211.58. This was a direct award under a limited procurement method from the WYCA (YaTH) Framework, intended specifically for IT Hardware, Networking & Security Equipment, and off-the-shelf software. The project location is within the UK, and it falls outside the scope of the standard procurement directive.

This tender presents significant opportunities for business growth, particularly for companies specialising in IT solutions, digital forensics, and software development. Given the requirement for specialised software for forensic examinations by a police department, the contract suits large-scale companies capable of providing sophisticated software solutions. The absence of a prior call for competition indicates that businesses with existing frameworks or partnerships may be especially poised to compete and benefit from this and similar procurements. Companies with a focus on public safety, digital forensics, and robust software systems would find an aligned growth trajectory by engaging in such contracts.
