This initiative is part of the National Law Enforcement Data Programme (NLEDP) and aims to establish a dialogue framework with Civil Society Organisations regarding the Law Enforcement Data Service (LEDS). Expressions of interest must be submitted by 17:00 on 3rd July 2019, and the expected delivery location for services is in London, United Kingdom. This procurement presents opportunities for businesses, particularly small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprise (VCSE) organisations, to engage in meaningful dialogue within the law enforcement sector. Companies that specialise in facilitation, community engagement, or have expertise in public sector dialogues would find this tender particularly suitable for showcasing their capabilities and contributing to the positive development of law enforcement data services. ## Notice National Law Enforcement Data Programme (NLEDP), which is a Programme within Police and Public Protection Technology (PPPT). PPPT sits within the Home Office Digital, Data and Technology (HODDaT) Directorate General Law Enforcement Data Service (LEDS) will replace the critical national public services currently provided by Police National Computer (PNC) and Police National Database (PND). We are seeking a supplier to maintain an Open Space for dialogue with Civil Society Organisations for the establishment of LEDS and other related programmes, and the provision of facilitators to run the space until it can be run internally with a Home Office resource. An "Open Space" is a term for a discussion framework agreed with participants and chaired independently of Government to advance thinking and reach agreement on controversial or sensitive topics. During the initial engagement with Civil Society the civil society organisations recommended the Home Office establish an Open Space for engagement on LEDs. Whilst, the majority of Civil Society Organisations contacted were content to engage to talk about LEDS, some had reservations. It was suggested by Civil Society Organisations that the creation of an Open Space would speed up the delivery of mutual trust and confidence. This would be helpful to allow free and frank conversations in a way that remained constructive. It would also help with a mutual flow of information. Expressions of interests should be submitted by 17:00 3rd July 2019. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/d235d72e-8c2c-45ff-9a5f-779b59e68061 | | Notice type | Market Engagement Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Not specified | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Planning | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 26 Jun 2019 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 3 Jul 2019 | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Planning | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | HOME OFFICE | | Locality | LONDON | | Post town | South West London | | Postcode | SW1P 4DF | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI3 Inner London - West | | ITL 3 | TLI35 Westminster and City of London | | Local authority | Westminster | | Electoral ward | St James's | | Westminster constituency | Cities of London and Westminster | | Delivery location | TLI London | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 98 - Other community, social and personal services ### Codes - 98000000 - Other community, social and personal services ## Release History - 26 Jun 2019 at 12:56 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/d235d72e-8c2c-45ff-9a5f-779b59e68061 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/d235d72e-8c2c-45ff-9a5f-779b59e68061 26th June 2019 - Early engagement notice on Contracts Finder ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
