## Summary

The Ministry of Justice (MoJ) is initiating a procurement process under the Grants Framework titled "Innovation Fund Early Engagement." This tender is in the planning stage and aims to identify a Strategic Partner to assist with the Electronic Monitoring Innovation Fund. The MoJ is located in London, UK, and the entire initiative is set to unfold over three financial years, with a total budget of £19.9 million allocated for innovative monitoring solutions. Key components include £3.9 million for 2022/23, £7.9 million for 2023/24, and £8.1 million for 2024/25, with submissions being actively encouraged from the Electronic Monitoring (EM) community starting from the future notice date of 14th July 2022.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in market testing services, research and development, and innovative technological solutions relevant to electronic monitoring. Companies that excel in data management, technology development, and complementary services could be particularly well-suited to compete, especially those capable of delivering evidence-based proposals that align with the MoJ's objectives of enhancing public safety and reducing reoffending rates. Engaging in this procurement process could facilitate expansion and innovation for suppliers committed to advancing electronic monitoring practices.
