Met Police Plans £350 Million Apps Overhaul Tender

The Metropolitan Police Service has launched plans for a £350 million contract to manage its software applications over the next decade. The procurement, referred to in internal documents as part of the “two-tower” management model, signals a major overhaul in how the force oversees its digital systems. The Met Police plans £350 million in spending to ensure long-term support and oversight of its application portfolio, aiming to improve operational efficiency and technology resilience.

Officials structured the procurement into two towers: one for application management and another for infrastructure services. This separation allows specialized suppliers to focus on distinct areas of IT service delivery. The Met Police plans £350 million in investment to cover a wide range of software, including crime management and communications tools. The force expects to finalize the tender within the financial year.
