UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Mayor’s Office for Policing and Crime procured 18 laser interlock control systems, manufactured to a specification agreed with the Authority and in accordance with EN ISO 13849-1. The requirement covers the supply of the systems together with delivery, installation, commissioning and demonstration. The procurement combines goods with associated installation services for control, safety, signalling and light equipment. Delivery and installation are in the United Kingdom. The buyer is a public authority based in London, responsible for policing and crime matters. The single requirement was treated as one lot, covering the complete system supply and installation package rather than separate equipment and service procurements. This is therefore relevant to manufacturers and specialist engineering businesses able to provide integrated laser safety control systems and their on-site implementation.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a below-threshold limited competition. The contract was awarded to LASER Optical Engineering Limited on 8 July 2026. The awarded contract value is £90,000 excluding VAT and £108,000 including VAT. The contract period runs from 8 July 2026 to 7 July 2028, with a maximum extent to 7 July 2029. The contract was signed on 8 July 2026 and is active. It includes an option for out-of-warranty repairs and hardware, and a renewal provision linked to the final installation date and the two-year warranty. The contract end date may therefore be earlier than the maximum extent date. The process comprised one completed lot and used a limited competition procedure.

This award demonstrates a defined requirement from the Mayor’s Office for Policing and Crime for specialist laser interlock control systems, including the engineering work needed to install and prove them in operation. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to manufacture or integrate equipment to an Authority-agreed specification, work to EN ISO 13849-1, and provide delivery, installation, commissioning and demonstration as one service. Capability to support the equipment after warranty, including repairs and replacement hardware, would also be relevant. The successful supplier was an SME, indicating that the requirement can be delivered by a specialist small business rather than only a large systems integrator. Businesses combining laser safety expertise, controls engineering and practical site implementation are the closest match.
