Summary of the contracting process

The recent procurement process initiated by The Police & Crime Commissioner for Sussex focuses on a comprehensive review of the National Intelligence Model, specifically under phase 3, which includes the Tasking Process and Threat Assessment Framework. This tender falls under the services category with the title "National Intelligence Model review phase 3," classified under system quality assurance assessment and review services. Located in the United Kingdom, primarily within regions such as UKJ22 and UKJ27, the process was completed with Larsen Consulting Ltd as the awarded supplier following a direct award procedure under the Gcloud 14 framework. The contract, valued at £464,805, was signed on 16th April 2026, finalising this stage of procurement through a limited procedure due to specific criteria excluding it from broader competitive calls.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses specialised in business and management consultancy services, particularly those that can provide high-quality assurance and review outputs. Companies capable of delivering specialised intelligence business case developments aligned with security and safety priorities will find this especially lucrative. While the procurement process was directly awarded, understanding the framework and maintaining high standards can position similar businesses favourably for future opportunities with regional authorities like The Police & Crime Commissioner for Sussex.
