## Summary

The procurement process, initiated by the Police and Crime Commissioner for Humberside, involves the provision of subscription-based research services and software licenses, targeting the IT services sector. The purpose of this process is to streamline the management and renewal of existing licenses to maintain compliance and ensure seamless access to essential digital platforms. With its location in the Yorkshire and the Humber region, this tender was handled through a limited procurement method, bypassing the typical call for competition due to its nature under the CCS G-Cloud 14 Framework Agreement. The contract, valued at £182,250, was awarded on 1 October 2025, with Gartner UK Limited being the supplier.

This tender presents business expansion opportunities, particularly for IT service providers specialising in software development, consulting, and internet services. Companies with capabilities in managing software assets, ensuring compliance, and implementing strategic technological resources would find this contract beneficial for establishing or expanding their presence within public law enforcement agencies. Large-scale organisations capable of fulfilling the high requirements and ensuring regulatory compliance could particularly benefit from participating in such procurement processes. While the contract has been awarded, understanding the requirements and sectors involved can help businesses align themselves for future opportunities in similar domains.
