UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

National Highways Limited procured independent verification services for the Temporary Automatic Speed Camera System (TASCAR) installation associated with the M6 Station Lane to 406.5 CR VRS scheme in Cumbria. The work covers technical control and verification of the installation, including two site visits. Each visit involves the required scans, baseline checks and speed-accuracy drive-throughs. The requirement is therefore suited to businesses that independently test or verify temporary traffic enforcement camera systems and related road-safety installations. The buyer is National Highways Limited, a central government public authority responsible for the scheme. Delivery is focused on the M6 Station Lane to 406.5 CR VRS works in Cumbria, rather than a general national service.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. National Highways used a below-threshold limited competition. RSS International Ltd was selected for the single lot. The contract was signed on 2 September 2026 and is active from 8 September 2026 to 31 December 2026. Its value is £12,000 excluding VAT, or £14,400 including VAT. The award covers technical control services for the TASCAR independent verification requirement. The contract provides for two site visits to complete scans, baseline checks and speed-accuracy drive-throughs. The published outcome identifies RSS International Ltd as the awarded supplier. No separate evaluation weighting or detailed selection criteria is recorded for this procurement.

This award indicates demand from National Highways for independent, technically robust verification of temporary automatic speed-camera installations on major road schemes. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need practical capability in scanning installed systems, carrying out baseline checks and conducting controlled speed-accuracy drive-throughs. Independence is central to the requirement, so suppliers should be able to provide verification separate from the installation activity and produce reliable technical findings. The work also requires staff and equipment capable of attending site visits in Cumbria and working safely around live or developing highways infrastructure. Experience of road-safety technology, temporary traffic management environments and technical control services would help demonstrate suitability for this buyer’s requirements.
