Summary of the contracting process

The Police & Crime Commissioner for Merseyside and Chief Constable for Merseyside procured support and maintenance for the Innkeeper liquor licensing system. The requirement is for ongoing software support and maintenance, rather than a new system implementation. The service is for the buyer’s operations in Merseyside.

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to WPC Software Limited. The contract was signed on 22 October 2026 and runs from 22 October 2026 to 6 October 2029. Its value is £42,230 excluding VAT (£50,676 including VAT). The procurement was described as below threshold; the specific procedure is recorded as unknown. The process had one lot. No award evaluation basis is stated.

This award demonstrates demand from Merseyside’s police organisations for specialist support and maintenance of their liquor licensing software. A credible supplier for a future requirement would need the capability to maintain and support the Innkeeper system, or to provide demonstrably relevant expertise in supporting comparable liquor licensing software. Experience of reliable ongoing software support would be directly relevant; the contract concerns system support and maintenance, not a broader policing technology programme.
