About the buyer

Cheshire Constabulary buys as a police force serving Cheshire, through a Joint Corporate Strategic Procurement department shared with the Office of the Police and Crime Commissioner. Framework agreements from Bluelight Commercial cover much of its national buying, including uniform development. Local suppliers and SMEs are weighed against those national agreements on a contract-by-contract basis. Construction contracts prioritise framework agreements with a locally based supply chain.

Over the past 5 years, most of Cheshire Constabulary's contract awards have been in transport equipment, IT services and software and information systems.
