Suppliers

Work with us to provide core services to blue light organisations, from fleet to forensics, estates to equipment and lots more between

 

We work across blue light organisations to transform their commercial procurement activity, resulting in bottom-line improvements, delivering cost and time savings and a more sustainable future. Our relationships with local and national suppliers are built on trust and collaboration, as we work to ensure the highest level of innovation and quality is delivered in the most commercially viable and sustainable way.

Find out how you can supply your products and services to blue light organisations, along with information on key focus areas such as social value and the Police Industry Charter.  

 

Police Industry Charter

Launched in March 2024, the Charter sets out the foundational principles upon which industry partners, whatever their product or services, together with UK policing can collectively adhere to.

We invite suppliers to policing of all sizes to sign the Charter. The Charter is a voluntary commitment and is not a pre-requisite to working with policing, however, it will signal a commitment to working in partnership with policing.

Procurement Act 2023

Are you ready for go-live on 24 February 2025

The new Act will improve the way procurement is done, so that every pound goes further for our public services. If your business supplies goods, works or services to organisations in the public and utility sectors – or hopes to do so – you need to know about the changes. 

As a supplier, you need to prepare for this significant change.

Social Value

In 2020 the UK Government made it mandatory for all central government departments and contracts to include Social Value criteria. Our free, online Social Value Action Planning Tool is available to all policing and blue light suppliers, which reviews environmental, economic and social impacts of your business, identifying positive impacts and potential improvements resulting in a tailored action plan. Using our evaluation tool demonstrates your social value commitment.
