The procurement process was conducted by Plymouth City Council for a project titled "28598 - the secure credit card fee and monthly data management system". This initiative falls under the services industry category, specifically data management services, with a procurement method described as "direct" and executed below the threshold without competition. The procurement is already at the contract award stage, with the supplier, INTERNATIONAL PARKING SYSTEMS (UK) LIMITED, secured to manage monthly invoices for the indicated services from 1st April 2026 to 31st March 2027.
