Summary of the contracting process

The Scottish Police Authority has recently completed a procurement process for the renewal of data software licences, entitled "Data Software Licence Renewal". This procurement falls under the services industry category and is situated in Glasgow, United Kingdom. The procurement was initiated through a limited method, specifically an award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition, due to the unique nature of the product offered by Micro Systemation Ltd (MSAB), the sole supplier capable of providing the necessary services. The contract, valued at £128,988, was signed on 17 January 2019, signalling the completion of the process.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses that specialise in software solutions, particularly those with expertise in closed proprietary systems and associated technical support. Given the rationale behind the procurement method, businesses are encouraged to focus on developing innovative software technologies that might align with specific public sector needs. Additionally, growth potential exists for firms that can establish strong partnerships with public authorities, particularly in the domain of public order and safety where bespoke solutions are often required.
