Using a BlueLight Commercial framework is a ready-made solution, saving both time and money as we have already carried out due diligence and supplier negotiation. This means customers get best value through our centralised buying power and can be reassured all suppliers, and products, will comply with required legislative and technical standards. Rigorous operational testing has been carried out to enable customers to buy with confidence.

We maintain the strategic relationships with suppliers, whilst the customer maintains control of operational contract management. We will oversee the implementation and onboarding of the contract, act as a single point of contact and provide an escalation route for any performance issues.

 

Scope of contract

This framework has been set up to streamline the process for police forces and other agencies to procure Penetration Testing suppliers for their annual IT health check and any additional Penetration Testing services which they may require.

The framework has the option to direct award to a supplier on the framework, or if there are specific requirements a mini competition can be carried out. To assist with budgeting constraints, the suppliers have agreed fixed day rates for the duration of the framework.
