Summary of the contracting process

The Royal Borough of Kensington & Chelsea is managing a procurement process for a Pay-to-Park service through a direct award via the G-Cloud 14 framework. The contract, valued at £3,205,660, was awarded to PayByPhone Limited with the contract having been signed on 17th July 2025. The procurement category is identified under services, specifically classification 63712400, representing parking services. This process has reached the award stage and includes a single lot intended to facilitate a pay-to-park service throughout the borough. The services will be accessible through telephone, mobile apps, SMS, or PayPoint kiosks within the United Kingdom, and the procedure used was conducted without prior publication of a call for competition to ensure business continuity and compliance.

The contract represents an opportunity for businesses specialising in technological solutions, specifically within the parking services industry, to expand their offerings in collaboration with local authorities. Given its focus on facilitating parking within an urban area, companies with expertise in mobile payment platforms or those experienced in smart city solutions would be particularly well-suited to compete in similar tenders. This procurement process highlights the importance of understanding frameworks like G-Cloud, which the Royal Borough prioritises to ensure effective and seamless integration of new services that align with government objectives and community needs.
