UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Police and Crime Commissioner for Nottinghamshire procured network mapping and architecture dependency mapping software. The system monitors hardware performance and traces which systems would be affected by a hardware failure, presenting the information visually on a wallboard in the Information Systems network area. This is a specialist software requirement supporting network visibility and understanding the operational impact of hardware failures. The contract covers a single requirement, with delivery across Nottinghamshire, Derbyshire and Leicestershire. The service is classified as IT services, including software development and support (CPV 72000000).

The procurement is complete and a supplier has been selected: Faddom LTD. The contract was awarded on 24 February 2026 and runs from 1 March 2026 to 28 February 2027. Its gross value is £31,963.68, with a net value of £26,636.40. The process used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. It comprised one lot. The published procurement information does not state an evaluation basis or specific eligibility requirements, so the outcome reflects a non-competitive selection rather than a comparison of competing bids.

This award shows that Nottinghamshire’s Police and Crime Commissioner buys specialist software to monitor network hardware and map dependencies, with a visual operational display for Information Systems staff. Suppliers seeking to be credible for a comparable requirement should be able to demonstrate reliable hardware-performance monitoring, accurate mapping of relationships between systems, and clear identification of the impact of equipment failure. The solution needs to present useful information visually in a network operations environment, rather than simply collect technical data. The selected supplier is an SME, showing that this scale of specialist software requirement can be met by a smaller supplier. The route used here was a direct award without competition, so the award does not establish a competitive evaluation model or specific qualification standard for future purchases.
