UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Mayor’s Office for Policing and Crime procured digital forensic video recovery services for the Metropolitan Police Service. The requirement covers the physical recovery of CCTV footage and assistance with retrieving CCTV material, including closed-circuit television services. The work supports police investigations by recovering and making accessible video evidence from CCTV systems. The buying organisation is the Mayor’s Office for Policing and Crime, acting for the Metropolitan Police Service. Delivery is in London. This is a specialist service requirement for suppliers able to undertake the practical recovery of CCTV recordings and provide technical assistance with retrieving video evidence. The procurement is a single service requirement rather than a multi-lot programme, and the selected supplier is a small or medium-sized enterprise specialising in security and radio-frequency systems.

The procurement has been completed and awarded through a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. Sabre Security & RF Systems Limited was selected. The award is active and the contract was signed on 1 August 2026, with an award date of 11 August 2026. The contract runs from 11 August 2026 to 31 July 2030. Its value is £150,000 excluding VAT, or £180,000 including VAT. The requirement was evaluated through the direct-award route rather than a competitive tender. The contract covers one completed lot for digital forensic video recovery and CCTV retrieval assistance for the Metropolitan Police Service. The available outcome shows one supplier and one active contract, with no cancellation or termination recorded.

This procurement demonstrates sustained demand from the Mayor’s Office for Policing and Crime for specialist CCTV evidence recovery over a multi-year service period. A credible future competitor would need practical capability in physically recovering CCTV footage, retrieving recordings from relevant systems and supporting the Metropolitan Police Service with digital forensic video requirements. Suppliers should be able to handle sensitive investigative material reliably and provide technical assistance that produces usable video evidence for police work. The award to a security and radio-frequency systems SME indicates that the requirement can suit a focused specialist business rather than only a large national contractor. Experience combining CCTV systems knowledge with dependable evidence-recovery services would be directly relevant when this buyer next sources the same requirement.
