## Summary

The Police and Crime Commissioner for Kent has awarded a framework agreement for the development of a digital asset management system, aimed at enhancing the storage and analysis of various digital assets such as CCTV footage and body-worn camera data. This procurement falls under the services category, specifically classified as database software development services (CPV code: 72212610). The contract period commenced on 25th September 2018 and will run until 24th September 2022, with a minimum value of £1,000,000 and an estimated total value of £49,000,000 based on potential subsequent call-off contracts. The procurement process was conducted using a selective method, following a competitive dialogue phase, and was officially published on 19th October 2018.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in software development, particularly those offering innovative data management and analytics solutions tailored for law enforcement applications. Companies that can accommodate the technical requirements of interfacing with existing police software and ensuring secure sharing of sensitive digital assets will be well-placed to compete. With a focus on SMEs and voluntary civil society enterprises, this framework could enable diverse suppliers to engage in substantial contracts across the UK police forces, increasing their market presence and encouraging collaboration in the public sector.

## Notice

Kent Police have procured a digital asset management system to store digital assets from a number of sources, including (without limitation): CCTV, body-worn video, smartphones, dash cameras, digital interviews, photographs, phone calls, crime scene material, Serious Collision Investigation Unit material, annotated maps, and documents. The system will interface with a number of other pieces of police software, such as Athena and Niche. The system will have analytic capabilities to identify digital assets that may be related and identify individuals and objects in images. The system will be capable of sharing digital assets securely with third parties such as CPS, Border Force, IPCC, other police forces, local authorities and HMIC. Kent Police have identified a single preferred supplier to whom they awarded a contract for the development of a proof-of-concept system, and Kent Police have now awarded the same supplier a framework agreement, under which a call-off contract has been let for the provision of a full system to Kent Police and call-off contracts may be awarded by any other national police force that wishes to call-off. Full details of the procurement and Kent Police's requirements were set out in the procurement documents.
