Summary of the contracting process

The Home Office procured coastal sensor equipment together with engineering support for installing the equipment. The work covers installation at coastal locations or onboard a Government vessel, with delivery in the United Kingdom. This is a services requirement combining supply of specialist equipment with engineering installation support, rather than a standalone equipment purchase. The stated classification is engineering services (CPV 71300000). The requirement is relevant to businesses that can provide coastal or marine sensing equipment and support its installation in operational environments. It may suit suppliers with experience working at shoreline sites and on government vessels, alongside the engineering capability needed to integrate and install newly supplied equipment.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to BOXXE LIMITED. The award was made on 1 July 2026, and the contract was signed on the same date. The active contract has a value of £5,000,000. The Home Office used a limited procedure without prior publication of a call for competition, running a further competition through the CCS/GCA RM6098 Framework. One bid was recorded, from an SME, and it was submitted electronically. Evaluation weighted price at 60%, technical quality at 30% and social value at 10%. The procurement was structured as one lot, which is recorded as cancelled, while the associated award and contract are recorded as active.

This award demonstrates a Home Office requirement for a combined coastal sensor equipment and engineering installation capability at a substantial scale. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to supply suitable sensor equipment and provide the engineering expertise to install and support it at exposed coastal sites or aboard a Government vessel. Technical quality is important, alongside demonstrable social value and competitive pricing, reflecting the evaluation balance used here. Suppliers able to work through the CCS/GCA RM6098 Framework, or to partner with a framework supplier, would be better placed to access this route. The successful supplier was an SME, indicating that the requirement can be delivered by a focused specialist rather than only a large prime contractor.
