Summary of the contracting process

This procurement process was initiated by the Police and Crime Commissioner for Suffolk, in collaboration with the Norfolk Commissioner, aiming to secure consultancy services for a Pathfinder Feasibility Project benefitting the Suffolk and Norfolk Constabularies. The project falls under the ESPO 664-25 Consultancy Services Framework, with the industry category being business analysis consultancy services. The process has reached the award stage, with LEAPWISE LIMITED appointed as the supplier. The contract commenced on 11th May 2026 and is set to run until 30th June 2026, with a potential extension based on funding and the status of related policing initiatives. This direct procurement process, classified as below threshold without competition, ensures quick engagement without the standard competitive tendering protocols.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for small to medium enterprises (SMEs), particularly those specialising in consultancy services focused on business analysis, to engage with local government authorities and expand their business portfolio. The direct procurement method reduces competition barriers, making it highly suitable for firms seeking to build or strengthen connections with public authorities in the United Kingdom, especially within the East of England region. The contract value of £51,600 also provides substantial financial growth potential for the selected supplier, fostering a collaborative environment to enhance public service efficacy.
