The Blue Light Sector is a challenging and fast-growing market. Suppliers often find it a difficult and political landscape to navigate, making it hard to get solutions into blue lights sectors.
For this briefing, techUK members Tussell will present open data and insights covering the police and fire markets. We will look at contracts awarded, top suppliers and contracts expiring. We will hear how police and fire tech spending has changed over time, how much of this spending is with SMEs, which frameworks are being utilised to procure tech, how the volume and value of tech contract awards has changed over time, and the value of upcoming renewals of tech contracts with policing bodies.
This briefing is an opportunity to be better informed on the challenges facing the police and fire sectors, such as budgets, capacity, technical debt and data complexity. It will also help you, as suppliers or new entrants, sell into this market, understand trends and what technology is being procured.
*Speakers will be announced soon
This session will be followed by a discussion/ Q&A so please come prepared to get involved in the conversation.
