UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for transporting cash to bank cash centres and the Bank of England was conducted by the Greater Manchester Combined Authority on behalf of the Greater Manchester Police. The contract is awarded under the legal basis of UKPGA 2023/54, with procurement executed via a direct threshold exemption, meaning it occurred below the competitive threshold. The main service category is road transport services. The award was finalised on 11th May 2026, with it spanning a period until 10th May 2027. The contract has a gross value of £18,000 and was tailored to match the requirements of an exemption from the usual procurement process, which confirms its completion stage as of 13th May 2026. The location of the procurement activities is within the United Kingdom, specifically in the UKD3 region, providing a critical service facilitated by the recipient supplier, Security Plus Limited.

This tender offers opportunities for businesses involved in road transport services, especially those interested in facilitating secure and efficient cash transportation. Given the nature of the contract and the direct award without competition, larger organisations with experience in high-security logistical operations are well-positioned for similar opportunities in the future. The contract represents a substantial chance for growth, primarily benefiting well-established firms like Security Plus Limited, which are capable of adhering to strict requirements and providing services over a fixed term with potential early conclusion if financial limits are reached.
