Summary of the contracting process

Cambridgeshire County Council is overseeing the tender process for the "Cambridgeshire Annual Traffic Surveys 2026-29," focusing on gathering traffic survey data throughout urban and rural locations in Cambridgeshire. This procurement, classified under data collection and collation services, is conducted via an open method under a below-threshold competition. The contract, valued at £80,000, is in the tender stage, with submissions required by 17th July 2026, following the enquiry period ending on 10th July 2026. Suppliers are invited to participate through the ProContract web portal, and the contract period spans from 1st September 2026 to 31st August 2029. There is no longer a requirement for suppliers to be from Cambridgeshire, broadening the pool of potential applicants.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in traffic survey services to engage with a sub-central government authority. The requirement for approximately 120 surveys across diverse locations offers substantial scope for growth, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises capable of meeting both quality and price criteria. By participating, businesses can expand their portfolio, establish a relationship with a major public authority, and gain exposure in the data services sector across the United Kingdom. This project is particularly suited for organisations with a robust background in data collection and an ability to deliver both urban and rural traffic analysis.
