Summary of the contracting process

The recent public procurement process initiated by the London Borough of Bromley, in collaboration with the London Borough of Bexley, is currently in the planning stage, focusing on the provision of traffic and parking services. The initiative, called "Traffic and Parking Services," falls under the services category and has an intended contract period from 3rd April 2027 to 2nd April 2037. The main procurement activity is to form a single contract to manage services across both boroughs, scheduled with a submission deadline for Expressions of Interest by 26th February 2026. This procurement process will engage potential service providers for services such as civil parking enforcement, parking permit processing, and multi-storey car park management, and the project is valued at £40 million excluding VAT.

This tender presents significant opportunities for service providers specialising in parking services and management solutions, particularly those capable of delivering a comprehensive service suite in urban areas. Potential bidders should be equipped to manage enforcement, IT support, debt management, and innovative solutions for parking enhancement. The opportunity is ideal for businesses with expertise in integrated traffic solutions, cashless parking systems, and advanced monitoring technologies. Engaging in this tender can drive business growth by establishing or expanding operations in two prominent London boroughs, fostering partnerships and gaining visibility in the public sector services market.

Notice Information

Notice Title

Traffic and Parking Services

Notice Description

Both the London Boroughs of Bromley and Bexley, through their Shared Parking Services Management arrangement, intend to tender for the provision of the traffic and parking services as specified in the Elements list below (which is subject to change) in the preferred format of one contract across both boroughs. This notice requests that Expressions of Interest are submitted so that the Councils can establish the size and nature of the market and obtain market intelligence from capable providers ahead of the formal tendering exercise. It is anticipated that a single contract will be awarded and formed of several sections of Specification to highlight services that must be jointly provided across both boroughs and those that remain unique to a single borough. The contract will form a partnership between the Shared Parking Service and one service provider across both boroughs. Service providers must be able to deliver all listed service requirements, either directly or through subsidiary organisations or sub-contractors. There will be no subcontracts or separate partnerships between the Shared Parking Service and any subsidiary company or sub- contractor. The inability of a single service provider to provide any single aspect of the specified services will prevent the service provider's tender from being accepted by the respective boroughs and an Expression of Interest form should not be submitted. Elements: Civil Parking Enforcement, (not including CCTV) Notice Processing, (Traffic and Parking) Parking Permit processing and associated services Multi-storey car park Performance Monitoring and Management Surface car park Performance Monitoring Management Lines Monitoring, and Management Signs Monitoring and Management Cashless Parking Solution Pay & Display machine monitoring, maintenance, cash collection and reconciliation Entrance / exit barrier management (Stockwell Close multi-storey car park, Bromley) Height barrier management Business Process Solution, (back-office solution for provision of all front line services) Enforcement Agents Monitoring and Management Debt Management Monitoring and Management Reporting, (all aspects of service delivery) Training of all staff engaged on the provision of any element of service delivery Civil Parking & Traffic enforcement by CCTV IT Support Innovation and Service Enhancement

Planning Information

We request that potential bidders complete the Expression of Interest form in the link below: https://forms.office.com/e/F0j4gjV8FL The Shared Parking Service is looking to understand which service providers are able to deliver the full range of services and expectations as set out in the Elements list above.

For clarity, this will only be conducted where a provider has clearly demonstrated that it can fulfil all elements within the notice and is at the Councils' discretion.
