Public Sector Scale Avon and Somerset Police is the seventh largest police force in England and Wales with a workforce over 6,000, including more than 3,000 sworn officers and a broad mix of roles. This indicates a sizable, centralized public sector buyer with ongoing needs for enterprise solutions, security, and compliance.

Technology Footprint The organization already leverages a diverse technology stack including iCIMS, Microsoft Power Apps, AWS, Microsoft 365 Copilot, SharePoint, SQL Server, Oracle Fusion, and Cisco. This presents opportunities for integrated cloud, collaboration, data management, cybersecurity, and low-code development initiatives.

Equity and Inclusion Award-winning equality and inclusion credentials (ENEI award winner, Stonewall accredited, Disability Confident, National Equality Standard) suggest a procurement preference for vendors with strong diversity, accessibility, and ethical standards, influencing partner selection and contract alignment.

Community Engagement Recent partnerships with youth and community organizations and initiatives around anti-social behaviour and parking indicate a readiness to adopt technology-enabled citizen engagement, incident prevention, and data-driven community policing solutions.

Expansion and Modernization Plans to open new locations and launch five-year plans for anti-social behaviour and parking show ongoing modernization and geographic expansion, signaling long-term opportunities for facility tech, security, fleet telematics, data analytics, and service delivery platforms.
