## Summary

The South West Police Procurement Service has completed the procurement process for the provision of a Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD) system. The contract, valued at £480,000, has been awarded to Specialist Computer Centres PLC. This procurement falls under the IT software package category, with delivery locations including the British Oversea Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, Isle of Man, Rest of the World, and the United Kingdom. The procurement was conducted through a direct award method, with the contract period starting on 19th December 2024 and ending on 17th October 2027.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses operating within the IT software sector, particularly those specialising in CAD systems. Although the procurement method was through a direct award, it highlights the potential for suppliers to secure large-scale governmental contracts. Large-scale companies with proven expertise in IT software solutions, like CAD systems, would be well-suited for this kind of competitive bidding process in future similar tenders. Engaging in such public contracts can bolster a company's portfolio, reputation, and growth within the public sector.
