## Summary

Nottinghamshire Police is renewing the Prisoner Intelligence Notification System (PINS) for itself and, as lead force, Derbyshire, Leicestershire, Lincolnshire and Northamptonshire Police. PINS is a specialist intelligence platform that gives police visibility of prisoner movements and releases, and links between offenders. It supports intelligence-led policing, offender management and public protection. The procurement covers continued software licences, technical support, maintenance and associated cloud-hosted services. This is specialist policing software and a related support service, rather than a general-purpose IT system. Delivery is for the five named forces in the East Midlands. The requirement is classified as industry-specific software (CPV 48100000).

The procurement is complete and the contract has been awarded to Saadian Technologies UK Ltd. Nottinghamshire Police used a selective call-off from the Crown Commercial Service G-Cloud 14 framework; the award date was 30 August 2026. The awarded value is £589,608. The award covers an initial three-year term, with an option to extend by a further 12 months. The tender contract period runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 August 2030, while the award record gives a three-year contract period ending 31 August 2029. The deadline for submissions was 30 August 2026. The procurement was for one system requirement, serving the lead force and four partner forces. The data does not describe evaluation criteria beyond the framework call-off route.

This award demonstrates demand across five police forces for a specialist platform that tracks prisoner movements and releases and identifies offender associations. Suppliers competing for a comparable requirement would need to provide a policing-focused intelligence system that supports operational intelligence, offender management and public protection, together with dependable software licensing, maintenance, support and cloud hosting. The scale calls for a service capable of serving several forces under a lead-force arrangement, rather than a single-site deployment. The buyer selected a supplier through the CCS G-Cloud framework, so familiarity with framework call-offs and the ability to deliver within that route would be commercially relevant. The successful supplier is an SME, and the procurement was marked as suitable for SMEs, indicating that smaller specialist providers can be credible competitors for this kind of requirement.
