Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Metropolitan Police Service procured a digital asset management solution (DAMS) as an information technology service. The requirement covers the provision of a platform for managing digital assets, with associated software, support and related IT services. Delivery is in London. The procurement sits within the wider category of IT services, including consulting, software development, internet and support, but the stated requirement is specifically a digital asset management solution. The buyer is the Metropolitan Police Service, a public body responsible for public order and safety. The requirement was arranged as a single package, with an option for a further 12-month period.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. It used a limited procedure without prior publication of a call for competition, through the G-Cloud 14 route, under a rationale concerning protection of exclusive intellectual property rights. The award was made on 30 June 2026 to BOX.COM (UK) LTD, with an active award and a contract signed on the same date. The contract value is £10,812,672. Evaluation was based on price. One bid was recorded for the requirement. The procurement was covered by the Government Procurement Agreement. The award information identifies one supplier and one procurement package.

This outcome indicates demand from the Metropolitan Police Service for an enterprise digital asset management platform rather than a general IT consultancy. Suppliers competing for a future requirement of this kind would need a mature DAMS product, secure handling of organisational digital assets, dependable software support and the operational capacity to serve a large public-sector customer. The procurement route and stated rationale also show the importance of demonstrating control of, or rights to, the relevant intellectual property. Credible competitors should therefore be able to evidence product ownership or authorised distribution, robust implementation and support capability, and experience delivering comparable information-management services to policing or other public-sector organisations.
