That notice was subsequently pulled and attempts to engage with the [email protected] as to why nothing further was forthcoming were met with no response.
I would like to know
- Why was the tender not released?
- Who subsequently won and tender process or option for renewal of any contract?
- How long was the extension on any contract and or the length of any new contract?
- How much was the contract for over the lifetime of any extension and or new contract?
Our response:
MOPAC does not hold the information requested. While MOPAC is the legal contracting authority for policing contracts and approves overarching procurement strategies and contract awards, the operational delivery of procurement activity sits with the Metropolitan Police Service (MPS). This includes the management of business-as-usual procurement processes, decisions not to proceed to tender and day-to-day commercial activity.
In this case, the Prior Information Notice related to an operational policing capability and the procurement process was managed by the MPS procurement directorate.
