UK2 - Preliminary Market Engagement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

North Yorkshire Council is exploring a service for parking payment apps across the United Kingdom. The intended scope combines parking payment software with parking and car-park management services, control equipment, safety or signalling equipment for parking facilities, and installation of parking meter equipment. The procurement is intended to support how motorists pay for parking and how parking facilities are controlled and managed. It is a single service requirement, with delivery associated with North Yorkshire Council’s parking estate. Suppliers offering parking payment platforms, car-park technology, parking equipment installation or operational parking management may therefore find the subject relevant. The council is using market engagement to help define the scope, assess feasibility of its proposed pricing model and refine the eventual tender specification.

This process is at the planning stage and is currently market engagement rather than an invitation to tender. The council expects the engagement milestone to be completed by 19 August 2026 and expects a subsequent notice on that date. The proposed contract is expected to run from 1 April 2027 to 31 March 2030, with a possible extension or renewal taking the maximum period to 31 March 2032. The estimated value is £1,220,000 excluding VAT, or £1,464,000 including VAT. The requirement is above the relevant threshold and is planned as one lot. The lot is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The engagement will inform the pricing model, scope and tender specification.

This preparation stage is most relevant to suppliers with established capability in parking payment applications, parking technology or car-park management. Potentially well-placed businesses include app and software providers able to support parking payments, suppliers of parking control or signalling equipment, firms that install parking meter equipment, and operators delivering parking management services. The requirement may also suit an SME with a combined technology and parking-services offer, or a specialist supplier working with delivery partners across equipment, installation and operations. Businesses should be ready to contribute practical views on the feasibility of the proposed pricing model and on how the service should be specified. Experience integrating payment software with parking equipment and managing customer-facing parking services would be commercially relevant when the procurement reaches the market.
