## Summary

The Home Office is undertaking a procurement process for the National ANPR Application and Associated Services, aimed at enhancing the UK's law enforcement capabilities through the use of Automated Number Plate Recognition systems. The contract, with an estimated value of £86 million (gross £103 million), encompasses the delivery, integration, and support of an advanced ANPR application. This tender invites participation via a selective procurement method, more specifically a Competitive Flexible Procedure, to ensure robust submissions are achieved. The deadline for expressions of interest is set for 4 August 2026, and the contract's duration spans from September 2027 to September 2034, with potential extensions up to 2039. The scope includes software development, integration with the National Strategic ANPR Platform, and the training and management of support services across England, Wales, and Scotland.

This procurement presents significant business opportunities, particularly for firms specializing in software package and information systems, IT services, and consultancy. Companies with capabilities in high-volume data processing, system integration within complex technical environments, and an established service management infrastructure will find this tender aligns with their service offerings. By engaging with this procurement, businesses can expand their portfolio, gain visibility with a key governmental department, and potentially secure a long-term contract. The initiative marks a substantial investment in enhancing national security infrastructure, inviting companies to contribute cutting-edge technology solutions to public safety and law enforcement efforts.

## Notice

The Home Office is conducting a procurement of a National Automated Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) Service Application and Associated Services (the 'NAS Application'). ANPR is a vital law enforcement capability used to detect and disrupt criminal activity, protect vulnerable individuals, and support national security efforts. The National ANPR Service (NAS) provides nationwide functionality to policing and law enforcement agencies and processes high volumes of ANPR data to enable vehicle journey analysis, alerting and evidential use. Around 100 million ANPR reads a day are sent to the NAS providing vehicle journey search, alerting and evidential export functionality to policing and law enforcement agencies across England, Wales, and Scotland. The future NAS Application must be capable of managing high-volume, high-demand operations while ensuring data security and privacy. The requirement is for a commercially available ANPR application, configured and integrated to meet the Authority's business requirements, together with associated implementation, integration, service management and support services. The solution will be required to operate within the Authority's technical environment, including integration with the National Strategic ANPR Platform (NSAP), which provides core ANPR data services including read collection, search functionality and alerting. The supplier will be responsible for integration of the proposed solution with NSAP and other relevant Authority and external systems. The scope includes: - Provision, configuration and customisation of an ANPR application, including user interface and supporting services; - System integration, including design, build, testing and deployment of the solution within the Authority's cloud hosting environment; - Integration with NSAP and other systems as required; - Transition into live service, including training and operational readiness activities; - Ongoing service management, support and maintenance of the solution, including incident, problem, and change management; - Continuous improvement and development to meet evolving operational requirements. The solution must support a range of operational capabilities, including vehicle search and analysis, alerting, case management, auditing, reporting and user access management. The procurement does not include responsibility for core NSAP data services, police-owned infrastructure, or Authority-owned system integration management functions, which will remain outside the scope of this contract. Further detail on the functional, technical and service requirements is set out in the procurement documents. The procurement is being conducted under the Procurement Act 2023 using a Competitive Flexible Procedure.
