Summary of the contracting process

Devon County Council is buying a traffic-data service for Devon, including Torbay and Plymouth. The service must provide origin-and-destination traffic information, vehicle speeds and journey times, using GPS signal data or an equivalent method such as mobile data. This is a data and software-led traffic monitoring service, rather than a requirement for road construction or traffic-control equipment. The work covers the county-wide area; the award describes the delivery location as Devon. The requirement is intended to give the council a broad picture of traffic movements and journey performance across the area, using data gathered from vehicle signals. It was procured as a single service lot.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Agilysis Limited. The award date was 23 October 2026, with an awarded value of £53,360.85 excluding VAT (£64,033.02 including VAT). The contract period runs from 4 November 2026 to 3 November 2027, with an option to extend for one further year, to 3 November 2028. Devon County Council used an open, below-threshold competition. Bids were due by 15 May 2026 and questions by 1 May 2026. The single lot was evaluated on quality, weighted at 70%, and price, weighted at 30%. Eight bids were recorded, all eight from SMEs. The published selection criterion refers bidders to the tender documents.

For suppliers considering similar future requirements from Devon County Council, this award demonstrates demand for county-wide traffic intelligence delivered through data and software, including origin–destination analysis, speed and journey-time information. A credible competitor would need access to reliable GPS-derived traffic data or an equivalent mobile-data source, together with the capability to process and present it as usable monitoring information across Devon, Torbay and Plymouth. The competition attracted eight bids, all from SMEs, indicating that smaller specialist providers participated. The published evaluation placed greater weight on quality than price, so evidence of data coverage, accuracy, analytical capability and practical usability would be important alongside a competitive commercial offer. The awarded supplier was Agilysis Limited, a specialist road-safety and transport-data business. The requirement is a single service rather than separate geographic lots. Neither a particular accreditation nor a stated minimum capacity is identified in the selection criterion summary.
