Summary of the contracting process

The Police and Crime Commissioner for Surrey procured the provision of PINS, the Prisoner Intelligence Notification System, for Surrey. This is a public-sector information technology service supporting prisoner intelligence notification and related prison-service operations. The requirement was treated as a service under the prison services category (CPV 75231230). Delivery is associated with Surrey and the wider United Kingdom. The buying organisation is a public body responsible for policing and public safety in Surrey. The requirement was arranged as a framework under G-Cloud 14, indicating that the work concerns the supply and operation of a specialised digital system rather than general prison staffing, custodial services or physical infrastructure. The selected supplier is Saadian Technologies, an SME technology company.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. It used a limited procedure: an award without prior publication of a call for competition, justified on the basis that only one supplier could supply PINS for Surrey. The award is active and was made to Saadian Technologies on 23 July 2026. The associated contract is active, valued at £17,124, and was signed on 23 July 2026. The requirement was evaluated on price. The arrangement described a three-year period with an optional additional year. One bid was recorded. The lot was marked cancelled, although the associated award and contract are active, so the published outcome is an active contract with the selected supplier.

This procurement demonstrates demand from Surrey’s policing and public-safety organisation for a specialised prisoner intelligence notification system. A credible future competitor would need to provide a proven system that supports prisoner intelligence notifications in a secure public-sector environment, with the technical capability to meet Surrey’s operational requirements. The route used was a G-Cloud 14 framework, so relevant suppliers would benefit from experience of supplying government technology through an established cloud procurement framework. The buyer’s stated rationale indicates that proven product fit and the ability to supply this specific system are central: the selected supplier was regarded as the only capable provider. Suppliers should therefore be able to evidence a directly relevant product, reliable implementation and support, and clear price competitiveness for a focused technology service.
