Summary of the contracting process

The Police and Crime Commissioner for Humberside procured a medical streamlined forensic reporting service to support Humberside Police’s investigation and prosecution of violent crime. The supplier works with healthcare professionals on the police force’s behalf, preparing medical reports for use in criminal investigations and prosecutions. This is a specialist forensic and healthcare reporting requirement, rather than general IT support, despite the broad IT services classification attached to the procurement. The listed delivery location is the United Kingdom; the contracting description centres on Humberside Police and its work. The service connects medical expertise with police investigations, helping produce streamlined forensic reports for cases involving violent offences.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Streamlined Forensic Reporting Limited. The process used a direct award through the G-Cloud 14 framework, with a longlist-to-shortlist evaluation; the stated award criterion was price. One bid was recorded. The lot is marked cancelled, but the three published awards and active contracts identify the same supplier. The first contract, signed on 24 June 2025, was valued at £82,215. A subsequent active contract was recorded at £164,430, signed on the same date, with a stated period of 1,440 days; its value was increased to address higher-than-expected volumes and maintain continuity while a new procurement was run. A further active contract is also valued at £164,430 and is described as replacing the earlier arrangement from 1 January 2027. The original lot period was 1,080 days, ending 31 December 2026.

This award demonstrates demand for a specialist service that can turn healthcare evidence into streamlined medical forensic reports for police investigations and prosecutions of violent crime. A credible competitor would need established capability in forensic medical reporting and the capacity to work with healthcare professionals on a police force’s behalf, producing reports that support criminal investigations and prosecution. The contract’s reported increase in value after volumes were higher than anticipated indicates that suppliers need to be able to manage significant or variable workloads and maintain continuity of service. The buyer selected a supplier through the G-Cloud 14 framework, using a longlist-to-shortlist assessment and price as the stated award criterion. Suppliers seeking comparable work should therefore be able to deliver this defined reporting service through an applicable framework route and compete on price, while sustaining delivery across the requirement’s scale.
