Summary of the contracting process

The Police and Crime Commissioner for Norfolk is procuring data migration and handling support. The service involves migrating and cleansing data held across multiple disparate systems, in accordance with relevant data protection and data handling legislation. The procurement is categorised as a service, with the awarded work classified under data security software development services (CPV 72212732). Delivery is across the United Kingdom. The wider contracting parties include the Police and Crime Commissioner for Suffolk, but Norfolk is the named buyer for this procurement. The requirement is therefore relevant to suppliers providing structured data migration, data cleansing, secure data handling and related software or technical support for public-sector information systems.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a direct, below-threshold procedure without competition. One lot was awarded to DC SOFTWARE SERVICES LTD, an SME. The contract was signed on 10 August 2026 and runs from 11 August 2026 to 10 August 2029. Its gross value is £36,000, including applicable taxes, and the contract is active. The procurement was evaluated through the direct-award route rather than a competitive tender. The awarded requirement covers the single lot and concerns data migration, cleansing and handling support for information held in multiple systems. The outcome provides a clear reference point for the buyer’s requirement and purchasing route.

This award indicates demand from the Police and Crime Commissioner for Norfolk for specialist support that can work across disconnected information systems while maintaining accurate, usable data. Suppliers well placed for comparable future requirements would have demonstrable capability in data discovery, cleansing, mapping, transformation and migration, together with robust controls for personal, operational or otherwise sensitive information. Experience of applying data protection and data handling legislation in public-sector or policing environments would strengthen credibility. Relevant technical delivery could include secure data-transfer processes, data-quality assurance, audit trails and software development or configuration supporting data security. As the buyer used a below-threshold direct route, suppliers should also understand how to present a concise, proportionate capability case for this scale of requirement.
