Summary of the contracting process

Warwickshire County Council procured road traffic surveying services through its Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS). The requirement covers individual call-off contracts for surveying work, classified as surveying services (CPV 71355000), delivered in the West Midlands. The procurement is a services contract intended to provide the council with road traffic survey information. The published requirement concerns the first-quarter 2026 call-off awards made through the council’s established DPS, rather than a single wider works programme. This is relevant to businesses providing road traffic counting, transport data collection or related field surveying services for local authorities. The named buying organisation is Warwickshire County Council, based at Shire Hall in Warwick.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. It used a selective call-off procedure from a dynamic purchasing system. The contract was awarded to Variou on 23 February 2029 for £17,020. The contract period runs from 24 February 2029 to 25 February 2029. The tender period ended at 12:00 UTC on 23 February 2029. The opportunity was evaluated as a road traffic surveying services requirement, with the process suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The award is recorded as active. The published procurement value and awarded value are both £17,020, in GBP. The award covers an individual call-off delivered in the West Midlands, and the selected supplier is identified as Variou.

This award demonstrates a defined requirement for specialist road traffic survey delivery by Warwickshire County Council, using its dynamic purchasing system call-off route. A credible future competitor would need practical capability in road traffic surveying and the capacity to mobilise field teams and equipment for short, clearly bounded assignments in the West Midlands. Experience of collecting reliable transport data for public-sector or comparable clients would help demonstrate delivery competence, although the available award information does not identify particular accreditations or technical systems. The council’s recorded suitability assessment indicates that the requirement can suit SMEs, so smaller surveying businesses with appropriate operational capacity may be competitive alongside larger providers. Businesses should understand DPS participation and call-off procedures, as this is the route used to buy the service.
