This procurement falls under the category of services within the office and computing machinery industry. The tender is being conducted under a selective procurement method and is in the planning stage, with a deadline for submissions set for 26 October 2020. The estimated value of this framework agreement is £6 million, with the contract period anticipated to start from 1 February 2021 and last until 31 January 2025. This procurement presents a significant opportunity for businesses focused on IT services, software development, and telecommunications equipment. Companies that offer comprehensive solutions in managed services, particularly those experienced in serving public sector clients or law enforcement bodies, would be well-positioned to compete for this contract. As the framework will allow for multiple call-off contracts throughout its duration, successful bidders could secure ongoing work and build lasting relationships within the policing and law enforcement sectors. ## Notice The Company is procuring a framework agreement which is open for itself and all policing bodies and law enforcement agencies to use. The Company intends to award its own call-off contract immediately upon completion of the framework agreement, with service delivery commencing for the Company from 1 April 2021 (with any transition and implementation effort being completed before that date). Additional call-off contracts may be awarded at any time during the remainder of the term of the framework agreement, subject to the provisions regarding the term of call-off contracts as set out in the framework agreement and template call-off contract (including, without limitation, that any other customer's call-off contract must be co-terminous with that of the Company). The Company will operate as agent for other customers in managing their call-off contracts, to ensure streamlined service delivery. Further details are included in the framework agreement and template call-off contract. The estimated value of the framework described in this OJEU notice is PS6million. This is on the assumption that a number of call-off contracts, in addition to the Company's own contract, are awarded. The Company estimates the value of its own contract (assuming that all five years of the call-off contract term are utilised) to be PS2-PS3million. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company gives no warranty or representation as to the value of any call-off contract, or the number of call-off contracts, if any, which may be awarded ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/078e592f-6845-4965-99be-a2f82f0daec8 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Framework | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Selective | | Procurement method details | Restricted procedure | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 23 Sep 2020 | | Submission deadline | 26 Oct 2020 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 1 Feb 2021 - 31 Jan 2025 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £6,000,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | EAST MIDLANDS STRATEGIC COMMERCIAL UNIT (EMSCU) | | Locality | LONDON | | Post town | Central London | | Postcode | EC4R 1AP | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI3 Inner London - West | | ITL 3 | TLI35 Westminster and City of London | | Local authority | City of London | | Electoral ward | Vintry | | Westminster constituency | Cities of London and Westminster | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 30 - Office and computing machinery, equipment and supplies except furniture and software packages - 32 - Radio, television, communication, telecommunication and related equipment - 48 - Software package and information systems - 50 - Repair and maintenance services - 51 - Installation services (except software) - 72 - IT services: consulting, software development, Internet and support ### Codes - 30000000 - Office and computing machinery, equipment and supplies except furniture and software packages - 30200000 - Computer equipment and supplies - 32000000 - Radio, television, communication, telecommunication and related equipment - 32400000 - Networks - 32500000 - Telecommunications equipment and supplies - 48000000 - Software package and information systems - 48100000 - Industry specific software package - 48200000 - Networking, Internet and intranet software package - 48300000 - Document creation, drawing, imaging, scheduling and productivity software package - 48400000 - Business transaction and personal business software package - 48500000 - Communication and multimedia software package - 48600000 - Database and operating software package - 48700000 - Software package utilities - 48800000 - Information systems and servers - 48900000 - Miscellaneous software package and computer systems - 50000000 - Repair and maintenance services - 50300000 - Repair, maintenance and associated services related to personal computers, office equipment, telecommunications and audio-visual equipment - 51000000 - Installation services (except software) - 51600000 - Installation services of computers and office equipment - 72000000 - IT services: consulting, software development, Internet and support - 72100000 - Hardware consultancy services - 72200000 - Software programming and consultancy services - 72300000 - Data services - 72400000 - Internet services - 72500000 - Computer-related services - 72600000 - Computer support and consultancy services - 72700000 - Computer network services - 72800000 - Computer audit and testing services - 72900000 - Computer back-up and catalogue conversion services ## Release History - 23 Sep 2020 at 17:30 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/078e592f-6845-4965-99be-a2f82f0daec8 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/078e592f-6845-4965-99be-a2f82f0daec8 23rd September 2020 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://uk.eu-supply.com/app/rfq/rwlentrance_s.asp?PID=34471&B=BLUELIGHT Additional data - https://uk.eu-supply.com/ctm/Company/CompanyInformation/Index/32217 User / Company ## Notice URLs - https://ict.police.uk/ ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
