Summary of the contracting process

East Ayrshire Council established a single-provider framework for traffic survey services at various locations throughout East and South Ayrshire. The requirement covers traffic monitoring and survey work, including traffic-flow measurement, data collection and analysis, presentation of results, and installation of traffic monitoring equipment where needed. It is a services contract for surveys commissioned as required, with the Council able to request additional survey types during the framework term. The work is delivered across East and South Ayrshire, including locations in and around Kilmarnock. The buying organisation is East Ayrshire Council, with the framework intended to support its ongoing road-traffic monitoring and survey requirements.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through an open procedure for a single-provider framework. Nationwide Data Collection Ltd was selected for the requirement, with the award recorded as active. The contract was signed on 31 July 2026 and is valued at £800,000. The framework has a duration of 1,440 days, with two optional one-year extensions at the Council’s discretion. The response deadline was amended to 31 March 2026 at 12 noon, with the award period beginning on that date. Evaluation gave 70% to price, 14% to methodology, 14% to data analysis and presentation, and 2% to Fair Work First. Seven electronic bids were received, all from SMEs.

This requirement suits traffic survey and transport data specialists able to deploy field teams, install and operate monitoring equipment, analyse traffic data and present clear findings. Credible competitors would need two recent examples of comparable traffic-survey work, with referees able to confirm satisfactory performance. Delivery teams would need New Roads and Street Works Act qualifications for supervisors and operatives covering signing, lighting and guarding. The buyer also expected robust quality, health and safety and environmental management arrangements, demonstrated through recognised accreditation or documented policies; relevant alternatives included ISO 9001, ISO 45001, SSIP, ISO 14001 or EMAS. Financial resilience, suitable insurance cover and the ability to provide staff names and qualifications would also be important. The award shows established demand from East Ayrshire Council for scalable survey capacity and competitive pricing.
