## Summary

The procurement process, initiated by Thames Valley Police, involves the establishment of a National Framework for the provision of Crime Scene Consumables (CSC) under the title "National Crime Scene Consumables (NCSC)" within the Clinical Forensics Equipment and Supplies industry category. The direct award was facilitated via the BlueLight Commercial framework BLC087 and encompasses multiple lots such as PPE, Medical Consumables, and Forensic Evidential Kits. Located in the South East, United Kingdom, this selective procurement process resulted in a contract valued at £966,000. The framework period will be from 01 October 2024 to 30 September 2028, with Lot 6 (Subject DNA Sampling Kits) commencing on 03 February 2025.

This contract presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in forensic supplies, medical consumables, personal protective equipment, and chemicals, particularly those looking to establish or expand their footprint within law enforcement sectors. Although the award was made through a direct call-off from an existing framework, similar upcoming tenders could be strategically advantageous for SMEs and larger firms well-versed in producing or supplying forensic equipment and consumables to engage with frameworks and build relationships with public sector buyers like Thames Valley Police.
