## Summary

The Police Digital Service procured an interim Business Analyst resource to support its work. This is a professional IT consulting service, within the wider field of software development, internet and support services. The requirement is delivered in the United Kingdom and is classified under CPV 72000000. The buying organisation is the Police Digital Service, based at 20 Gresham Street, London. The procurement is for services rather than goods or construction works. It is a focused resource requirement for a business analyst, rather than a broad programme of business analysis, software delivery or general technology support. Suppliers considering comparable work should therefore be able to provide an interim business analyst resource for a UK public sector digital service environment.

The procurement is complete and was awarded on 21 August 2026 to Permanent Futures Ltd. The award value is £117,306. The contract runs from 24 August 2026 to 31 March 2027. The tender deadline was 21 August 2026 at 5:00pm. The Police Digital Service used a selective procedure, specifically a call-off from a framework agreement, rather than an open competition. The opportunity was assessed as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and was not reserved for voluntary, community or social enterprises. The selected supplier is Permanent Futures Ltd., an SME based in Horsforth, Leeds. The award is active and covers the complete interim Business Analyst requirement.

This award provides a clear indication of the Police Digital Service’s demand for interim business analysis capability within IT consulting and digital support. A credible future competitor would need to supply an experienced Business Analyst who can operate as an interim resource in a public sector digital environment, with the capacity to support the buyer’s requirements for the duration of a substantial assignment. The successful supplier was an SME, showing that the requirement can be delivered by a smaller specialist provider rather than only by a large systems integrator. Suppliers already able to provide business analyst personnel through the relevant framework route would be well placed to assess comparable Police Digital Service requirements when this type of work returns to market.
