Summary of the contracting process

Roydon Parish Council sought an operator for the lease, management and operation of Dobbs Weir Road car park in Hoddesdon, Hertfordshire. The service covers day-to-day car park management, maintenance, customer service, compliance, revenue collection and site improvements. Potential improvements include signage, lighting, payment systems, automatic number-plate recognition (ANPR) and possible electric vehicle charging. This is a public-sector car park management and land-leasing opportunity, with delivery at Dobbs Weir Car Park, Dobbs Weir Road, Hoddesdon, Hertfordshire, EN11 0AZ. The council is the contracting organisation and would work with the successful operator over the full lease and operating arrangement.

The process reached tender: Roydon Parish Council invited offers through a below-threshold open competition, with electronic submission allowed. The tender was cancelled on 19 August 2026 because further documentation was being prepared. The published submission and enquiry deadlines were both 21 August 2026 at 23:59. The proposed contract period was 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2041, with a possible maximum extension to 30 September 2051 and a right to renew under the Landlord and Tenant Act 1954. The estimated value was £450,000 excluding VAT, or £540,000 including VAT. The sole lot was assessed as suitable for SMEs. Evaluation used the Most Advantageous Tender approach, covering operational quality, financial value, experience, innovation, environmental and social benefit, and compliance with the Procurement Act 2023.

This opportunity suits established car park operators, facilities-management businesses and other SMEs able to take operational responsibility for a public car park over a long-term lease. Suppliers would need practical capability in daily site management, maintenance, customer service, regulatory compliance, revenue collection and handling payment systems. Experience with ANPR, lighting, signage and other car park technology would support the improvement requirements, while the potential for electric vehicle charging favours operators with relevant infrastructure or partnership capability. Bidders would also need to demonstrate operational quality, financial value, relevant experience and innovation, alongside credible environmental and social benefits. Businesses able to manage a complete lease-and-operation service, rather than provide only a single technical element, would be best placed to compete.
