    Brief

    Sussex Police seeks a 15-month extension to its current language services contract (expiring 30 November 2026) with the incumbent supplier. This extension maintains critical language support services essential for operational policing activities. The extension bridges the gap until a new BlueLight Commercial Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) becomes available in September 2027, at which point a full competitive procurement process will be undertaken. This approach avoids disruption to services, eliminates unnecessary procurement costs, and prevents implementation risks that would arise from a separate interim procurement exercise. The contract is demand-led, with values based on actual spend from 1 April 2025 to 31 March 2026, extrapolated across the 15-month extension period. Interested suppliers should note this is a temporary arrangement designed to ensure service continuity pending the successor DPS.
