Summary of the contracting process

The Metropolitan Police Service sought a culture, standards and integrity ecosystem capability to improve its operating environment and support organisational reform, modernisation and operational improvement. The requirement falls within IT services, including consulting, software development, internet and support services. It supports policing across the Metropolitan Police Service area, serving more than eight million people across 620 square miles. The buying organisation is the Mayor’s Office for Policing and Crime, acting for the Metropolitan Police Service. The work is therefore relevant to suppliers providing technology-enabled organisational improvement, integrity and standards capabilities, software or related implementation and support services for a large, complex public-sector policing environment.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a direct call-off under the Back Office Software 2 Framework (RM6285), using a limited procedure without a separate call for competition. The award criteria were price only, and one bid was recorded. Palantir Technologies UK Ltd received the award for the requirement. Two active contract records each show a value of £1,959,996: one signed on 17 July 2026 and another signed on 6 August 2026. The tender record contains one lot, whose status is recorded as cancelled, while the associated awards and contracts are active. The requirement was covered by the Government Procurement Agreement and concerned a 12-month continuation of the capability.

For a future requirement of this kind, credible suppliers would need to combine technology consulting, software development, internet-based systems and ongoing support. The buyer’s stated objectives indicate a need for capability that can improve an existing operating environment while supporting organisational reform, modernisation, operational improvement, standards and integrity. Suppliers should therefore be able to show experience delivering complex technology-enabled change for a large public-sector organisation, with sufficient capacity to support policing operations at metropolitan scale. The procurement also demonstrates that this buyer has used a government framework and a direct-award route for the requirement, so suppliers seeking comparable work should understand relevant framework access, call-off terms and evidence needed to demonstrate a suitable established capability.
