UK2 - Preliminary Market Engagement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Hounslow is currently in the planning stage of a procurement process titled "Parking, Environmental Enforcement (& CCTV) Services." This initiative, set in Hounslow, London, falls within the services category, specifically focusing on environmental and parking enforcement services, with the associated CPV codes 90700000 and 98351110. The procurement process is anticipated to advance from market engagement in 2025 to a formal tender in 2026, with an aim to award contracts by Summer 2026. The contract is projected to start in October 2026 and run until September 2030. Key milestones include the submission of the market engagement questionnaire by 8th August 2025, as the council seeks feedback from providers to shape future service delivery.

This tender represents a strategic opportunity for businesses involved in environmental, parking, and CCTV services to partner with Hounslow Council in modernising and improving service delivery in the public realm. Companies that can offer innovative, efficient solutions aligned with the council’s objectives to enhance public service, support environmental goals, and provide value for money will find this an opportune moment to contribute. Particularly, firms with a track record in public enforcement services and regulatory compliance, and those capable of delivering comprehensive solutions through collaborative frameworks like the Crown Commercial Services, are well-suited to compete for this contract, thereby facilitating substantial growth opportunities in the UK market.
