About the buyer

The Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) is a non-ministerial department that prosecutes criminal cases investigated by the police across England and Wales. Fourteen regional CPS Areas handle prosecutions locally, each led by a Chief Crown Prosecutor. A dedicated Commercial Team manages supplier contracts and procurement policy for the whole organisation. CPS's buying spans IT systems, digital transformation and legal support services such as court transcription and video links.

Over the past 5 years, most of CPS's contract awards have been in business services, IT services and software and information systems.
