The four police forces in the Yorkshire and the Humber region have a joint Regional Procurement Team. The team has dedicated resources for procuring goods, services and works, contract management and strategic projects.
The four forces within Yorkshire and the Humber spend approximately £200 million per annum on the procurement of goods, services and works. The aim of the Yorkshire and the Humber Regional Procurement Team is to achieve value for money and increase sustainability.
They provide specialist support to the forces in the Yorkshire and the Humber region in all tasks related to buying supplies and services using a variety of contractual arrangements ranging from locally placed orders to large complex collaborative contracts.
Today's economic climate demands businesses operate in a sustainable manner, with a culture of continuous improvement, taking into account the various different impacts procurement has on the economy and the environment around them. This is no different for the Yorkshire and the Humber Police Forces who are constantly seeking to make the most prudent and effective use of its resources. The Governments’ current drive towards higher efficiency, combined with annual constraints on public finance, has brought new dimensions to the use of resource management. We are constantly seeking innovative solutions which provide greater value for money.
To find out more about how to do business with our forces, you can read the Police and Crime Commissioner's guide for Suppliers, which also contains contact details for the team.
Police and Crime Commissioners are required to publish a copy of every contract with a value exceeding £10,000 and a list of those that have a value of less than £10,000 to which they or the Chief Constable is a party. They are also required to publish a copy of every invitation to tender for a contract with an expected value exceeding £10,000 to which they or the Chief Constable is a party.
In the Humberside Police area the majority of formal contracts are in excess of £50,000.
Details of contracts and new tender opportunities can be found on the Bluelight Emergency Services Tendering website.
