Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process led by the Home Office for "Coastal Sensor Equipment & Engineering Support" has been completed as of 22nd July 2026. This contract, categorised under Engineering Services, involves the procurement of sensor equipment with accompanying engineering support for installation at coastal locations or on a government vessel. The procurement was conducted under a limited method without prior publication due to the nature of the framework. While one lot was initially planned, it was subsequently cancelled. The location of delivery is specified as the UK, and the procurement was part of a further competition via the CCS/GCA RM6098 Framework. The contract was awarded to BOXXE LIMITED, a small to medium enterprise based in York, with the contract signed on 1st July 2026 for a value of £5,000,000.

This tender represents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in engineering services, particularly those with expertise in coastal or maritime environments. Companies capable of providing high-quality sensor technology and reliable engineering support would find such opportunities advantageous. The tender process encourages participation from small to medium enterprises, offering them a chance to expand their portfolio and gain valuable experience in government projects. Businesses looking to engage in future opportunities should focus on fostering technical and competitive pricing capabilities, as these were crucial criteria in the award process. The involvement of a recognised ministry like the Home Office further underscores the strategic and operational importance of these services within national procurement priorities.
