Summary of the contracting process

The Police and Crime Commissioner for South Wales procured Compass IOT, cloud software for accessing vehicle telemetry data. The system enables analysis of vehicle speeds on roads across Wales and near-miss data, helping identify the most dangerous roads so the force can take action. The procurement is for a telemetry surveillance system, delivered across South Wales and other parts of Wales. The description states that the software holds no personal data.

The procurement is complete and was awarded directly to Compass IOT Limited, without competition, as a below-threshold purchase. The contract was signed on 9 October 2026 and runs from 9 October 2026 to 31 March 2027. Its value is £25,000 excluding VAT (£30,000 including VAT). There was one lot, covering the requirement as a whole. The published information identifies no separate evaluation criteria; the supplier was selected through the direct-award route.

For suppliers competing for a similar requirement from the Police and Crime Commissioner for South Wales, this award demonstrates demand for cloud-based vehicle telemetry software that can analyse road speeds and near-miss data to support road-safety decisions. A credible competitor would need to provide access to useful vehicle data and tools that help identify dangerous roads across a geographically broad area. The selected solution’s stated lack of personal data is also relevant to the requirement, so suppliers should be able to explain clearly how their software handles data and supports analysis without personal information. The direct, non-competitive route used for this purchase means the award is evidence of the buyer’s chosen solution and purchasing approach, rather than a competed comparison of suppliers.
