Summary of the contracting process

The South Yorkshire Mayoral Combined Authority has completed a procurement process for the renewal of the Ivanti Device Controller solution, under a contract awarded to Insight Direct (UK) Ltd. This procurement aimed to consolidate separate contracts from South Yorkshire Police (SYP) and Humberside Police (HP) into a single agreement, enabling significant cost and resource savings. The procurement category is 'goods', specifically within 'Database and operating software package', and it pertains to the consolidation of 10,000 licenses across both forces. This award process, finalised on 24th November 2025, was implemented via a limited procurement method without a prior call for competition, as justified by the West Yorkshire Combined Authority IT framework.

This contract presents growth opportunities for businesses capable of providing IT solutions, particularly those specialising in software licensing, security, and networking within the public safety sector. Businesses familiar with policing IT requirements and experienced in managing large-scale software implementations across multiple units would be well-suited to participate in similar future tenders. With 177,600 GBP in contract value, it showcases the benefits of streamlining procurement processes across regional authorities, encouraging suppliers to support governmental efficiency while potentially expanding their market presence across related public sector entities.

Notice Title

Ivanti Device Controller

Notice Description

Renewal of the Ivanti Device Controller solution.

Lot Information

Lot 1

The force currently utilises Ivanti Device and Application Control version 5.1 to manage access to removable media across all environments. Previously, the force renewed the contract year on year, this agreement will lead to significant savings in costs and resources. A 3-year contract for 10,000 licenses will be set up to support future growth as more personal issue devices are deployed. Separate deployments and contracts were previously established for SYP and HP. An imbalance in licenses between the two forces has prevented an upgrade to the latest version of Ivanti, as newer versions enforce stricter license compliance. Proceeding with the upgrade under current conditions would result in many HP clients being disabled due to insufficient licensing. This procurement will bring the separate deployments and Force contracts into one single contract and will work with the successful bidding supplier from lot 2 of the WYCA IT framework. They will engage with Ivanti to consolidate all licenses for both SYP and HP under a single contract. This will enable the implementation of a unified solution with force-specific policies, ensuring compliance and facilitating future upgrades.
