Notice Information
Notice Title
NDC0109-26 - National Parking Platform
Notice Description
North Devon Council (NDC) intends to enter into a contract with the National Parking Platform (NPP) for the provision of digital parking payment services for NDC car parks. The NPP will replace the current arrangements which only allow payment through one parking payment service. NPP enables customers to pay for parking via any participating platform.
Procurement Information
The conditions for Direct Award are satisfied because NPP is the only supplier able to provide the required service of enabling users to pay for parking via a wide range of parking applications through its technical function of aggregating multiple parking payment service providers into a single payment platform. No alternative supplier has the technology or co-operation of individual parking operators to provide the same service and the platform IP and assets were developed by the DfT and transferred specifically for the operation of the NPP.
