Greater Manchester Combined Authority (GMCA), as the contracting authority for Greater Manchester Police (GMP), would like to hear from suppliers willing to share information about operational enhancements we wish to make to our current stores system and technology. The store consists of a single site based at Openshaw in Manchester. The new system is expected to deliver: • Reduced over-ordering and improved entitlement controls. • Efficiencies by streamlining manual processes. • An improved stocktaking method. • Improved service delivery to officers and staff. • Compliance with data protection and operational standards. The proposed specifications include: • Functional: Inventory management, user management, distribution and returns. • Technical: Reporting, performance, system architecture, security. • Operational: User interface, system integration, compliance, implementation and support. We are exploring market capability to modernise the Stores function and will consider operational enhancements, or an off-the-shelf solution with suitable technology that will interface with existing systems. We seek to understand the capacity and capability of suppliers who can deliver this type of functionality within a police secure environment. Whilst the contracting Authority is the Greater Manchester Combined Authority, this contract will be procured and managed by the Greater Manchester Police.
