## Summary

The Police and Crime Commissioner for Humberside has completed a procurement process titled "FC-X LICENCE RENEWAL," within the software-related services category. This procurement involves the renewal of a licence and support for a Radio Frequency kit/software essential for operational needs. The process has reached the award stage, and the contract was signed on 30th July 2025, with a contract value of £5,000. The procurement was executed through a limited method without prior publication, citing protection of intellectual property rights as the rationale.
