Summary of the contracting process

The Wall Mounted Scanner procurement was conducted by the Greater Manchester Combined Authority for the Greater Manchester Police. The contract aims to provide a scanner detector capable of identifying ferrous content. This procurement was executed through GMP's exemption process, classified under public authority - sub-central government, focusing on goods within the metal detector category. The direct procurement method, below threshold and without competition, facilitated the contract award to Metrasens Ltd. on 3rd February 2026, which became active on 4th February 2026 and is set to complete by 31st March 2026. Located in Manchester, this initiative underscores the strategic role of the Greater Manchester Combined Authority in bolstering regional security infrastructure.

This tender presents potential business growth opportunities for entities specialising in security equipment, particularly those that provide metal detection solutions. Businesses that can innovate in the field of scanner technology or have substantial experience in supplying security apparatus will find this contract aligning with their expertise. Given the requirement for a wall-mounted detector, enterprises focusing on manufacturing and supplying hardware and detection devices of various scales could benefit substantially from such contracts with sub-central government bodies. This procurement reflects Greater Manchester's need for reliable safety solutions, offering firms in the region and beyond an avenue to expand their market presence in the public security sector.
