Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Bath and North East Somerset Council procured UTC software services for use in the Bath area of England. The system monitors and controls traffic signals, supplies operational data, detects faults, and supports traffic-signal optimisation and control. This is a specialist transport technology and software requirement, classified under CPV 48000000 for software packages and information systems. The work is relevant to suppliers that develop, implement, support or operate urban traffic-control platforms, particularly systems integrating traffic-signal monitoring, fault management, data services and optimisation. The council is the buyer, based at The Guildhall in Bath. The procurement was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises, although the awarded supplier is Yunex Limited.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Yunex Limited on 26 June 2023. It used a direct award under the CCS RM6099 Transport Technology Framework, rather than an open competition. The tender submission deadline was 12 June 2023. The awarded value was £75,572 excluding VAT for the initial term. Two optional 12-month extensions were available, each valued at £15,114.40 excluding VAT; the stated total value was £105,801 excluding VAT. The contract period runs from 28 June 2023 to 13 June 2028, while the procurement’s stated service period runs from 13 June 2023 to 13 June 2028. The award covers services for the council’s UTC traffic-management software requirement.

This award indicates established demand from Bath and North East Somerset Council for an integrated urban traffic-control platform, rather than standalone generic software. Competitors seeking similar work would need credible capability in monitoring and controlling traffic signals, collecting and presenting operational data, detecting and managing faults, and supporting traffic-signal optimisation. A strong proposition would also require the capacity to provide a dependable software service throughout a multi-year council contract, including support for optional extensions. Experience delivering transport technology to public-sector or network-management users would help demonstrate that the system can operate reliably in a live traffic environment. Suppliers eligible to use the relevant CCS transport technology framework, including smaller businesses and social enterprises where they have the required capability, may find this buyer and requirement a useful market reference.
