Summary of the contracting process

Sheffield City Council has established a traffic survey services framework covering traffic monitoring and related surveys for activity in Sheffield. The framework is intended to support the council’s traffic and transport requirements, with work commissioned through mini-competitions. Four framework providers have been appointed, and the framework can be used only by Sheffield City Council. The appointed suppliers are CITISENSE LTD, CTS TRAFFIC & TRANSPORTATION LIMITED, NATIONWIDE DATA COLLECTION LIMITED and TRACSIS TRAFFIC DATA LIMITED. This is a services opportunity for businesses providing traffic data collection, traffic monitoring, survey delivery and associated reporting. The requirement is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprises.

The procurement has been awarded and the contract is active. Sheffield City Council used an open procedure to establish a closed framework, with mini-competitions and further competition for individual assignments. The framework was awarded on 15 May 2026 to CITISENSE LTD, CTS TRAFFIC & TRANSPORTATION LIMITED, NATIONWIDE DATA COLLECTION LIMITED and TRACSIS TRAFFIC DATA LIMITED. Its estimated value is £1,500,000 excluding VAT (£1,800,000 including VAT). The contract was signed on 30 July 2026 and runs from 1 August 2026 to 31 July 2030. Eleven bids were received, all from SMEs. Evaluation weighted quality at 85% and social value at 15%. Economic and technical selection requirements were set out in the tender pack.

This award demonstrates established demand from Sheffield City Council for traffic surveys, monitoring and reliable transport data over a substantial framework period. A credible future competitor would need the operational capacity to undertake varied traffic-related surveys, collect accurate and complete information, and produce reports to agreed standards and timescales. The framework’s use of mini-competitions means suppliers would need to respond competitively to individual assignments rather than rely on a single fixed work package. Relevant experience in traffic data collection, monitoring methods, survey management, data quality assurance and reporting would strengthen a future proposition. The evaluation also shows that strong technical quality and measurable social value matter, alongside the ability to meet the council’s requirements for orders and reports delivered on time.
