Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process titled "Mental Health Referral Forms" was undertaken by the Metropolitan Police Service, a body governed by public law located in London, United Kingdom. This tender, classified under IT services such as consulting and software development, aimed to establish cloud-hosted software to facilitate the handover of individuals detained under the Mental Health Act 1983. Initially planned under the G-Cloud 14 framework, the process was conducted through a limited procurement method without prior publication of a competition call. The award stage has been completed, with Thalamos Ltd successfully awarded the contract worth £744,000, which was signed on 10th July 2025.

This contract opens growth opportunities for businesses specialising in IT services, particularly those offering cloud-based solutions and software development tailored to public sector needs. SMEs and software firms that can provide secure and efficient IT solutions for government health services would have fared well in this procurement. Utilising the G-Cloud framework further highlights the necessity for firms able to work within pre-established governmental frameworks, suggesting that businesses with a track record in similar projects would be competitive in such tenders. Thalamos Ltd, being an SME, exemplifies the kinds of businesses well-suited to deliver value in this sector.
