This contract falls under the services category and specifically involves the installation of parking meter equipment, set to be active from 1st January 2026 to 1st January 2029. This procurement process, with the ID DN804898, was classified as direct and conducted below the threshold without competition, resulting in the award being made to YourParkingSpace Limited, a small and medium-sized enterprise (SME) based in London.
