UK2 - Preliminary Market Engagement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Mayor's Office for Policing and Crime (MOPAC) in London is seeking a training provider for their Community Scrutiny Transformation Programme. This initiative aims to develop a network of volunteer community scrutineers who will independently review police practices, focusing on areas like stop and search, handcuffing, and the use of tasers. As of 26 March 2026, the procurement process is in the planning stage, with the market engagement period having concluded earlier in March. The training contract is scheduled to commence on 1 June 2026 and will initially run until 31 May 2028, with potential renewal options. The opportunity falls under the services category of training, with an estimated value of £375,000, and is classified within the 'light touch' procurement regime, below the threshold for EU procurement regulations.

This tender presents significant opportunities for organisations specialising in training services, community engagement, or law enforcement accountability. Businesses with expertise in delivering training programmes oriented towards social justice, community safety, or law enforcement practices would be particularly well-suited to compete. The programme seeks to ensure fair police scrutiny processes through training offered to both scrutineers and police officers, which may foster collaborative environments and enhance community-police relations. Organisations capable of developing comprehensive training curricula and establishing measurable outcomes will find this an opportunity to leverage their expertise while contributing to enhancing civic oversight and public trust in police practices.
