Summary of the contracting process

Nottinghamshire County Council commissioned active travel monitoring services between Waterside Bridge and West Bridgford town centre, covering the defined monitoring area. The work uses traffic sensors positioned along a series of count lines to capture as many active travel movements as possible, including walking and cycling movements, while also recording on-road vehicle movements. The requirement is categorised as road transport support services (CPV 63712000), with a related transport systems consultancy element (CPV 71311200). Delivery is in England. The buyer is Nottinghamshire County Council, based at County Hall in Nottingham. The requirement is a service rather than works or goods, combining sensor deployment or operation with transport monitoring and analysis to support understanding of movement patterns in the specified corridor.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Vivacity Labs on 22 July 2026. The awarded contract value is £44,674. The original estimated value was between £44,000 and £45,000. The contract period runs from 3 October 2026 to 2 October 2029. The tender submission deadline was 10 July 2026 at 23:59. The procurement used an ‘Other’ procedure, with the detailed method recorded as ‘Other’. It was run as a services procurement and was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The award is active and covers the monitoring requirement as a single procurement, with Vivacity Labs named as the selected supplier. The contracting authority is Nottinghamshire County Council.

This award shows a defined requirement for sensor-based monitoring of active travel and road traffic in a Nottinghamshire urban corridor, with delivery sustained over a multi-year contract. Suppliers considering comparable future work for this council would need credible capability in traffic sensing, sensor installation or management, data capture and the reliable reporting of movement counts. Experience covering both active travel and on-road vehicle movements would be relevant, as would the ability to manage monitoring across a bounded area and multiple count lines. Transport systems consultancy expertise would strengthen a supplier’s position, particularly where raw sensor data must support transport planning or evaluation. The procurement was suitable for an SME, indicating that specialist monitoring businesses may be credible competitors when this type of requirement returns.
