UK2 - Preliminary Market Engagement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process led by the Mayor's Office for Policing and Crime involves the development and maintenance of a Progressive Web Application (PWA) for the ProtectUK platform. The procurement, conducted by the Metropolitan Police Service on behalf of MOPAC, aims to enhance the existing ProtectUK website. The process is currently in the tender stage, inviting UK-based suppliers to compete for a contract valued at approximately £650,000, with a gross amount of £780,000. This procurement falls under the services category, particularly in IT services such as consulting, software development, and internet support. The procurement uses a selective, competitive flexible procedure which includes stages like submission of interest by May 8, 2026, and aims to conclude the award by July 17, 2026. Located in London, the procurement is open to small and medium enterprises with contracts running from July 31, 2026, to July 30, 2029, with an optional extension year.

The tender provides significant opportunities for IT consultancy and software development firms, especially those with expertise in digital learning platforms and protective security solutions. The project aims to improve user experience and technical infrastructure while aligning with compliance standards such as WCAG and GDPR. Businesses that can offer innovative content design and technical resilience enhancements, along with UK-hosted services, are well-suited to this opportunity. With a focus on increasing user engagement and diversifying content, companies experienced in analytics, threat awareness, and operational resilience are likely to find substantial growth prospects through this contract. Participation requires that all personnel be vetted with BPSS, and developers must hold NPPV3/SC clearance, ensuring a high level of security capability.

Notice Description

This procurement is being conducted by the Metropolitan Police Service (MPS) on behalf of the Mayor's Office for Policing and Crime (MOPAC) who are the Contracting Authority as defined in Section 2 of the Procurement Act 2023. This Invitation to Participate has been issued by MOPAC who are seeking to award a Contract for the provision and maintenance of a Progressive Web Application for ProtectUK, a website and digital learning platform that provides advice, guidance and information on protective security for venues and public spaces across the United Kingdom. ProtectUK is a national counter terrorism and protective security platform delivered by Counter Terrorism Policing (CTP).

The platform enables users to strengthen their protective security and operational resilience, prepare for and respond to terrorist incidents, access online learning and best-practice guidance, and maintain awareness of the current UK terrorism threat level. This invitation to tender presents a strategic opportunity to shift from a period of technical stabilisation to one focused on enhanced user experience, innovative content design, and improved technical resilience, working closely with the National Counter Terrorism Security Office (NaCTSO) and key counter terrorism specialists. Over the next four years, development of the ProtectUK platform will focus on: - Increasing overall user engagement and site traffic. - Diversifying content to reflect legislative developments and new target audiences. - Improving technical infrastructure to support performance, integrations, scalability, security and future digital capabilities. - Strengthening ProtectUK/NaCTSO branding and national visibility. - Enhancing analytics and insights to measure the impact of ProtectUK on user learning and protective security knowledge. - Ensure WCAG, GDPR compliance requirements are met. Bidders must be UK based - all services and support under this Agreement must be supplied from a permanent place of business located within the UK. Personnel must hold BPSS and developers with system access must hold NPPV3/SC vetting. This must already be in place or be in place by contract award.
