Notice Information
Notice Title
Human Resource Management System
Notice Description
The provision of a human resource management system for Police Digital Service.
Procurement Information
The contracting authority is extending its current HRIS solution to maintain continuity of critical HR services during a period of transition. There is significant uncertainty regarding future requirements and contract duration due to ongoing reform initiatives within the policing sector. Running a full competitive procedure at this stage would likely result in bidders competing for a short-term contract that may not remain operational beyond the implementation phase, creating disproportionate cost and risk for both the authority and suppliers. A direct award ensures service continuity and avoids unnecessary market disruption during this transitional period
