Description
The City of London Corporation (the "City") is looking to contract for a NPCC Cybercrime Programme - Cybersecurity training provider.
The Cybercrime Programme was established by the National Police Chiefs' Council (NPCC) in 2017 to establish cybercrime units in every police force in England and Wales. The aim of the initiative is to deliver specialist cybercrime capability in each police force with a focus on victim support, an effective investigation response and targeted prevention.
The NPCC Cybercrime Programme has had to ensure that the force and Regional Organised Crime Units throughout the UK are equipped to deal with the ongoing threat of Cybercrime including new and emerging cybercrime threats. The NPCC Cybercrime Programme needs to deliver cybersecurity training to staff across all police forces and Regional Organised Crime Units (ROCU) in England and Wales along with Police Scotland, Police Service of Northern Ireland, British Transport Police as well as partner agencies such as the National Crime Agency (NCA), Home Office and Crown Prosecution Service (CPS).
The duration of the contract will be for 12 months, subject to the right of the City (at its sole discretion) to exercise its right to extend the contract by up to 24 further months.
