UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Police and Crime Commissioner for Lincolnshire procured strategic consultancy support services to help address recommendations arising from HMICFRS Engage findings, Phase 1. The requirement covers business and management consultancy and related business support services. Delivery is in Lincolnshire, within the United Kingdom. The work is for a sub-central public authority responsible for policing and crime oversight in the county. It is a focused advisory requirement rather than the purchase of goods, construction or operational policing services. Businesses with experience of strategic reviews, recommendation implementation and public-sector improvement programmes would find the subject matter most relevant, particularly those able to translate inspection or engagement findings into practical organisational actions and supporting advice for a policing and public-sector client.

This procurement is complete and was awarded through a direct, below-threshold procedure without competition. One lot was completed. NXN Advisory Ltd was selected, and the contract was signed on 11 February 2026. The contract ran from 11 February 2026 to 30 June 2026. Its value was £40,000 including tax, with the same amount recorded before tax. The award was for services related to the strategic consultancy requirement and was recorded as active. The procurement used a direct award route rather than an open or competitive tender. The stated purpose was to assist with recommendations from HMICFRS Engage findings, Phase 1, so relevance depends on a supplier’s ability to provide targeted consultancy support against that defined improvement agenda.

This award indicates demand from the Police and Crime Commissioner for Lincolnshire for targeted strategic advice connected with HMICFRS Engage findings and the implementation of resulting recommendations. A credible future competitor would need strong business and management consultancy capability, with practical experience of turning review, inspection or engagement findings into deliverable improvement actions. Relevant suppliers are likely to be those able to analyse organisational issues, advise senior public-sector stakeholders, structure recommendations and support implementation rather than only produce high-level reports. Experience working with policing, public authorities or comparable regulated organisations would help demonstrate understanding of governance, accountability and operational context. The requirement is suitable for a focused consultancy business able to provide specialist advisory input at modest contract scale.
