    Brief

    HM Prison and Probation Service (HMPPS) is conducting market engagement to identify point-of-care (POCT) urine drug testing solutions for use across UK custodial settings. HMPPS seeks to understand the current market offerings and capabilities to support drug detection and substance misuse interventions as part of public protection, rehabilitation, and recovery programmes. Key areas of interest include: the range of substances detected (including synthetic drugs and emerging substances), testing flexibility and speed, operational suitability for prison environments, staff training and support requirements, regulatory compliance, cost-effectiveness, and integration with existing systems. This is a market engagement exercise to gather supplier information and assess available options. No formal procurement commitment has been made at this stage, but suppliers are encouraged to provide detailed information about their products, technical specifications, implementation timelines, and support services to inform HMPPS's future commercial and operational decision-making.
