## Summary

The Civil Nuclear Police Authority, a public authority under central government, is managing a procurement process for the supply and installation of carbine holographic sighting systems. This procurement, designated under ID CNC/1255, falls under the "Weapons, ammunition and associated parts" industry category with a total estimated value of £840,000.00 GBP. The procurement covers the Abingdon area in Oxfordshire, UK. The process has reached the tender cancellation stage as of 15th June 2026 due to inconsistencies in the tender documents, with plans for republishing at a later date following an earlier initiation in the planned and active stages. The open procedure method was utilised, with electronic submissions required and a tender period originally set to close by 27th June 2026.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in optical equipment and firearms accessories, particularly companies capable of delivering high-quality holographic sight systems designed to enhance the operational capabilities of law enforcement. SMEs with expertise in providing sophisticated weapon sighting solutions could find this procurement aligned with their business growth strategies, especially considering the potential for future re-tendering. Furthermore, the existence of options for contract extensions ensures a more enduring business relationship, fostering further growth opportunities for successful bidders.
