## Summary

The public procurement process concerns a contract awarded to Leonardo UK Limited for the supply of an MCX Dispatcher and related services. This contract, managed by the Home Office, is part of the Emergency Services Mobile Communications Programme (ESMCP) transition project from Airwave to the Emergency Services Network (ESN). The procurement falls under the category of communication software development services and covers multiple regions across the United Kingdom, including London, Scotland, and the East of England, among others. The contract, valued at GBP 11.3 million, was awarded through a selective competitive procedure with negotiation. The contract period started on 10th July 2025 and will run until 9th July 2030, with the procurement status now marked as complete.

This tender opens avenues for large-scale companies specialising in communication software and systems integration. It provides a significant opportunity for businesses capable of deploying advanced dispatcher solutions tailored to emergency services. Companies that focus on software development for communication networks and have substantial experience in handling complex governmental projects would be highly suitable to engage with similar future opportunities. The involvement in such high-profile governmental programmes could enhance business growth, increase reputation, and provide a foothold in public sector procurement.

## Notice

This Notice relates to the award of a contract for an MCX Dispatcher and related services to be provided to the Emergency Services Mobile Communications Programme (ESMCP). The supplier will provide a standalone, MCX Dispatcher product which allows a desk based operator the ability to access and utilise the supervisory and control elements of the MCX services and capabilities of the Emergency Services Network (ESN) via a graphical user interface. The proposed solution will initially be used as a test tool by the ESMCP programme and is then intended to be deployed to the existing emergency service control rooms (in limited numbers per control room) during the transition from Airwave to ESN.
