Summary of the contracting process

The Scottish Police Authority intends to procure Taser 10 Conducted Energy Devices (CEDs), associated cartridges and storage cabinets for the Police Service of Scotland. This is a supply requirement for operational police equipment and its secure storage, rather than a works or services contract. Delivery is planned for West Central Scotland. The authority is acting as the buyer and central purchasing body. The stated scope brings together the devices, consumable cartridges and cabinets needed to store them. The classification is CPV 44421000, covering security boxes, safes and strongboxes. Suppliers should therefore assess their relevance across the equipment supply chain, including the ability to provide compatible Taser 10 devices and cartridges alongside suitable storage cabinets for police use.

This procurement is at the planning stage. The authority has issued a Request for Information to inform, engage and gather market information on potential procurement options; it is not an invitation to tender. The planned procurement is a single lot covering Taser 10 CEDs, associated cartridges and storage cabinets. The stated estimated value is £360,000. The buyer expects a future notice to be published on 1 April 2027. The market engagement is intended to help shape the eventual requirement and procurement approach, so suppliers responding should focus on the available products, supply models and practical delivery options they can offer. The planned category is goods, with the procurement intended to support Police Scotland operations.

This market engagement will suit manufacturers, authorised distributors and specialist security-equipment suppliers able to provide Taser 10 Conducted Energy Devices, compatible cartridges and secure storage cabinets as an integrated supply. Relevant businesses should be prepared to explain product availability, compatibility, cabinet design, installation or delivery arrangements, replenishment of cartridges and support for a police customer. Experience supplying law-enforcement, security or other controlled operational environments would help suppliers demonstrate practical understanding, although the information provided does not set out formal accreditation requirements. Businesses that can offer reliable equipment supply, secure storage solutions and dependable consumables logistics should use the planning stage to shape the buyer’s understanding of viable procurement options before the requirement reaches the market.
