Summary of the contracting process

The Crown Prosecution Service (CPS), a central government public authority in the United Kingdom, has completed its procurement process for the "Provision of Cabling and Circuitry" contract. This was part of a competitive flexible procedure aimed at securing network cabling services for CPS offices and HMCTS court buildings across the UK. The contract, awarded on 8th June 2026, is valued at £331,820.83, excluding VAT, and spans an initial three-year period starting from 6th July 2026, with potential extensions for up to two additional years. North PB Limited, categorised as a small and medium enterprise (SME), has been selected as the supplier under this contract which falls within the services category, specifically maintenance and repair of data network equipment.

This procurement presents significant business opportunities for SMEs specialising in network cabling solutions, especially those that can deliver ad-hoc, responsive services to government sectors. Businesses with expertise in installation, quality assurance, and project planning stand to benefit, given the heightened emphasis on technical quality, health and safety, and sustainability outlined in the award criteria. The CPS has also signalled a willingness to support SC clearance for engineers directly involved in this contract, lowering barriers for SMEs to participate in public sector tenders, making it an attractive proposition for businesses aiming for growth through public procurement contracts.
