UK6 - Contract Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

National Highways Limited procured traffic-counting goods and associated data services for the M32 between junctions 2 and 3 at Eastville. The requirement covers ten SIM card replacements, ten artificial-intelligence sensor upgrades and ten AI sensors providing data. It is primarily a goods procurement, with the equipment and related service delivered in the United Kingdom. The buyer is a central government public authority responsible for the strategic road network. The requirement is focused on traffic monitoring technology: suppliers need to provide replacement connectivity, upgraded sensing equipment and ongoing traffic-data provision for a specific motorway location. The single lot combines the hardware, connectivity changes and data service into one requirement rather than separating these elements between suppliers.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Tracsis Traffic Data Limited on 21 July 2026. It used a selective procedure, with the award made under a framework and without a competitive call-off. The awarded value is £208,950 excluding VAT and £243,775 including VAT. The contract was signed on 14 August 2026 and runs from 17 August 2026 to 16 August 2031, with optional renewals described as 12 months plus 12 months; the maximum extent date is 16 August 2033. The award had a standstill period ending on 7 August 2026. The contract requires accurate and timely billing within 15 business days of a milestone, monthly data delivery and continuous service availability during business hours.

This award indicates established demand from National Highways for integrated traffic-monitoring capability at a defined motorway site. Suppliers seeking to compete when this requirement next returns would need to combine SIM-based connectivity, AI traffic-sensor upgrades, supply of sensors and reliable traffic-data provision, rather than offer only one isolated component. Credibility would depend on demonstrating accurate and timely service delivery, dependable data availability and the operational capacity to support equipment and connectivity throughout a long-term arrangement. Experience of supplying or maintaining road-traffic monitoring technology, managing sensor data and meeting service levels for a public-sector infrastructure operator would be relevant. The existing framework route also shows the importance of being positioned within an appropriate purchasing framework.
