Cheshire Constabulary on behalf of the Police and Crime Commissioner for Cheshire

How to win their contracts

Measured from Cheshire Constabulary on behalf of the Police and Crime Commissioner for Cheshire's own published record — no estimates, no generic advice.

• Plan for about 34 days to prepare a bid — that is the median gap between publication and deadline across 12 of their tenders.
• They publish about 0.8 tenders a month, measured over 48 months of history.
• Half of their 15 awarded contracts are worth £441.3k or less — size your bid to that range.
• Most of their buying falls in health and social work services, software package and information systems, security, fire-fighting, police and defence equipment.
• Their most frequent suppliers are Crown Computing Limited (2) — expect to bid against incumbents who already know this buyer.
