UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Police, Fire and Crime Commissioner for Northamptonshire procured Axiom software licences and DVR Examiner for Northamptonshire Police. The requirement combines software-related services and investigation services, with associated goods. It supports digital investigation activity, specifically the use of Axiom licences and DVR Examiner. Delivery covers Northamptonshire and Leicestershire. The buyer is a sub-central public authority based in Wellingborough. The procurement concerns a single requirement rather than separate service areas, and the awarded items are linked to the completed lot. Businesses relevant to this opportunity are those supplying or supporting digital-forensics investigation software, including Axiom licences and DVR Examiner, for police or comparable public-sector investigative users.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded to Demux Video Services. The buyer used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. The award was made on 23 July 2026. The contract was signed on the same date and runs from 1 August 2026 to 31 July 2027. Its gross value is £40,279.20. The contract is active. The requirement was handled as one completed lot. The award covers services as the main category, with goods also included, and its classifications cover investigation services and software-related services. This outcome shows a single supplier selected for the combined provision of Axiom licences and DVR Examiner rather than separate awards for the software and investigation elements.

This procurement indicates a focused requirement for digital-investigation software and related support within policing. A credible competitor for comparable work would need to supply Axiom licences and DVR Examiner, understand their use in forensic or investigative workflows, and support users who depend on specialist evidence-analysis tools. Relevant capability is likely to include software licensing, implementation or technical support, investigation-sector knowledge, and the ability to work with police operational requirements. Suppliers should be able to deliver the combined software and investigation-services requirement through a direct-award route where the value remains below the applicable threshold. The selected supplier’s profile also indicates that a larger specialist provider can satisfy this buyer’s need for a tightly defined, single-supplier solution.
