Summary of the contracting process

The Scottish Police Authority has completed a public procurement process for the upgrade of existing Q-Pulse Licences and the procurement of additional Q Pulse services and support. This project, classified under the goods category, was conducted through an open procedure and was finalised on 14 July 2020. The contract, valued at £165,126.20, specifically targets suppliers based in Glasgow UK, with the tender initiated due to the absence of competition for technical reasons. The key contact for this procurement is Marion McFadyen, reachable via email at marion.mcfadyen@scotland.pnn.police.uk.
