Tender description

Greater Manchester Police sought to appoint a provider to support the design and delivery of senior level promotion processes. The provider will deliver a robust, consistent and standardised assessment centre to ensure the credibility of the selection process for our future senior leaders. The contract consists of a number of elements, including stakeholder analysis, design (including training and briefing) and resourcing. The assessment centre structure varies between the chief inspector, superintendent and chief superintendent processes, in order to differentiate each of the ranks. The supplier will provide and train assessors, role players and role actors for the activities based on the College of Policing’s Competency and Values Framework (CVF) with the exception of any board or multiple mini interviews. The assessment centres will be expected to accommodate 6 candidates per day and the duration would be based on the number of applicants.

About the buyer

Greater Manchester Police is the territorial force for Greater Manchester's ten boroughs, covering Bolton, Bury, Manchester, Oldham, Rochdale, Salford, Stockport, Tameside, Trafford and Wigan, and buys as a blue light body. New tenders are advertised through the Bluelight eTendering portal. Contracts also appear on the Chest, the North West's shared procurement portal used by local authorities across the region. Contractual standing orders set the rules for open and accountable purchasing. The Mayor of Greater Manchester also serves as police and crime commissioner for the force. A Police, Fire and Crime Panel scrutinises how the mayor exercises these powers.

The top 10 blue light buyers spent a collective £2.2bn between FY2021 and FY2025.

Over the past 5 years, most of Greater Manchester Police's contract awards have been in software and information systems, IT services and office and computing equipment.
