UK1 - Pipeline Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Nottingham City Council is planning to issue a tender for the CPU 5938 Highways Traffic Management System, aimed at traffic-calming works and the installation of illumination and signalling systems. The procurement process falls under the 'works' category and is part of the open procedure method. This initiative is linked with a new framework agreement intended to cover operations within Nottingham City, United Kingdom. The tender process is currently in the planning stage, with a future notice expected on 2026-02-02, and the contract period slated from 2026-07-01 to 2030-06-30. This pipeline notice, published on 2025-07-02, aims to alert the market about future tender opportunities, although no immediate action is required from potential bidders.

This tender offers significant prospects for business growth, particularly for suitably experienced and qualified contractors. Companies specialising in civil engineering, traffic management systems, and lighting installation are well-positioned to benefit. The opportunity opens avenues for both small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) due to its suitability criteria. Securing inclusion in the Highways Traffic Management Framework could facilitate collaboration with Nottingham City Council, potentially replicating successful strategies and expanding market reach in public infrastructure projects.
