## Summary

The Police and Crime Commissioner for Hertfordshire recently completed a procurement process for the supply of 25 Axis M4318-PVE - 360 security cameras, a tender categorised under 'goods' and specifically related to security cameras. The procurement method was limited, focusing on below-threshold, limited competition. The official award date was 28th January 2026, and the contract with SOFTCAT LIMITED, based in Buckinghamshire, covers the period from 28th to 29th January 2026. The procurement was conducted under legal provisions outlined in UKPGA 2023/54, ensuring compliance with relevant legislative requirements. The buying organisation is located in Harpenden, Hertfordshire, and operates as a sub-central public authority within the United Kingdom.

With the procurement method permitting limited competition, small to medium enterprises such as SOFTCAT LIMITED were well-positioned to participate, demonstrating the potential for companies with specialised expertise and competitive pricing to secure contracts in public sector procurement processes. This opportunity may be particularly appealing to security technology firms looking to establish or broaden their footprint in the public sector market, capitalising on the demand for advanced surveillance equipment.
