## Summary

Staffordshire Police is seeking to procure an all-weather unmanned aerial vehicle (drone) that meets specific technical requirements, with a contract value of £40,000 GBP. This procurement falls under the goods category and is classified as a selective tendering process, with the contract period running from June 4, 2020, to June 3, 2021. The tender documentation was published on June 9, 2020, following award status announced on May 6, 2020. The drone's delivery location is in the West Midlands, United Kingdom, and this procurement appears to have been sourced through a framework agreement.

This tender presents an opportunity for businesses, especially small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), to expand into the drone technology sector. Companies that specialise in manufacturing or supplying UAVs, particularly those with capabilities to meet the required specifications of a maximum weight of 20kg and versatile design, would be well-positioned to compete. As this procurement is linked to law enforcement applications, firms with experience in working with public sector organisations or those familiar with regulatory compliance in drone operations may find this opportunity particularly advantageous.
