Summary of the contracting process

The Police & Crime Commissioner for Merseyside & Chief Constable for Merseyside has completed a procurement process with the title "Altia Insight and Financials Licenses," aimed at enhancing software capabilities through the Insight Classic and Financial Investigation Toolkit. The procurement falls under the public authority and sub-central government category, focusing on software packages and information systems. This direct award, with procurement initiated through tender, was finalised on 23rd March 2026, and the contract period spans from 1st April 2026 to 31st March 2028. This procurement action was deemed necessary due to the existing system's importance and anticipated future national project changes set for late 2027. The process included a direct award method, ensuring continuity and avoiding the complexities of switching systems prematurely.

The tender presents valuable growth opportunities, particularly for businesses in the software and information systems industry. ALTIATECH LTD, a small and medium-sized enterprise, was identified as the supplier due to its pertinent expertise and ability to fulfil the comprehensive software requirements. This contract, valued at £195,646 excluding VAT, and reaching £234,775 gross, highlights the potential benefits for SMEs looking to expand their portfolio by engaging with public contracts. Companies operating in technological solutions with a focus on financial investigations and insights would be well-suited to compete in similar future opportunities, capitalising on the expanding demand among public sector clients.
