Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Newry, Mourne and Down District Council is procuring the supply, installation and maintenance of a power-operated automated height restriction barrier at the entrance to Castle Park car park, Park Avenue, Newcastle, County Down. The barrier is intended to improve parking management while allowing a high-sided delivery vehicle to enter and leave the car park serving the local Post Office sorting office. This is a goods procurement covering safety barriers (CPV 34928300), with road barriers as an additional classification. The work is therefore relevant to suppliers of automated vehicle access control, height restriction systems, parking management equipment and associated installation and maintenance services. Delivery and installation are required at Castle Park car park in Newcastle, County Down.

The process reached tender: the council invited offers through an open procedure. Bids were due by 28 August 2026 at 12:00 noon. The contract period set by the buyer runs from 17 September 2026 to 30 September 2026. Its estimated value is £15,000 including the stated currency, GBP. The requirement is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The competition is accessed through the MultiQuote supplier platform using reference CA18348; suppliers must register there if necessary and submit their quotation through that route. The requirement is presented as a single purchase covering the barrier, installation and maintenance at Castle Park car park. No separate lot structure or alternative evaluation weighting is stated in the procurement details.

This opportunity suits an SME that can provide a complete, installed automated height restriction solution rather than equipment supply alone. Relevant capability includes selecting a barrier suitable for a public car park, accommodating the required access for a high-sided delivery vehicle, installing the equipment safely at the site entrance and providing maintenance during the contract period. Suppliers with experience in automated barriers, vehicle access control, parking management or road safety equipment should be well placed to assess the requirement. The work is relatively contained, making it potentially suitable for a specialist installer, a barrier manufacturer with an installation partner, or a facilities and parking systems contractor able to coordinate supply, installation and aftercare. Practical site delivery capability in Newcastle, County Down will also be important.
