Notice Title
Scalable Free-Flow Charging solution
Notice Description
Highways England is in the early stages of developing a scalable free-flow charging solution for commencement of live service between 2021 and 2024, which will include schemes such as Dartford-Thurrock River Crossing. The solution would be a potential enabler to realising any longer term aspiration of interoperability between charging schemes and a smarter integrated service for the customer. Highways England wishes to speak to the market to gain their insights and experience in this field which will be fed into the development and make-up of the scalable free-flow charging solution. We anticipate the following industries will be interested in this opportunity: - Tolling and free-flow charging providers; - CCTV and ANPR camera manufacturers; - Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) providers; - Field engineers and maintainers; - Contact centre and Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) companies; - Civil enforcement and debt management providers; - Payment solution providers (e.g. merchant acquirer services); and - Software vendors. Interested parties are requested to read the pre-procurement briefing and to confirm their attendance at the market engagement day by emailing TechnologyProcurement@highwaysengland.co.uk by 5pm on 5th February 2018 should they wish to attend. Attendance is strictly restricted to 1 attendee per organisation. Lunch is provided. Interested parties should also outline any specific dietary or accessibility requirements. Interested parties should also complete the market engagement questionnaire by Friday 23rd February 2018 17:00 GMT. Suppliers will be informed by Monday 5th March 2018 17:00 GMT whether they will be invited to a one-to-one meeting in London. These meetings will be held between 12th-16th March 2018 and 19th-20th March 2018. Please note that suppliers will be assigned a 2 hour non-negotiable slot. Please note that, due to a fault with the Contracts Finder website, we are unable to publish this notice as an Early Engagement notice. As such, we've had to publish a Future Opportunity notice, but suppliers should deem this an Early Engagement notice (this means that a procurement idea is currently active, it is in the early stage of development and judging interest from potential suppliers).
