Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Middlesbrough Council procured civil enforcement solutions under the title Parking Management Systems. The requirement is for services supporting parking management and civil enforcement activity, delivered in Middlesbrough. The procurement was arranged through an ESPO framework and covers a local-authority service rather than physical works or the supply of standalone goods. The contracting authority is Middlesbrough Council, which is both the buyer and the organisation responsible for the requirement. The named service is described broadly as Civil Enforcement Solutions, so relevant businesses are those providing operational or technology-enabled services for parking enforcement and associated management systems. The procurement falls within the broad public, community and personal services category.

The procurement has reached completion and an active award was made to Modaxo Traffic Management UK Ltd. The contract was signed on 24 August 2026 for £352,326.80. It covered one lot, although that lot is recorded as cancelled while the related award and contract are recorded as active. The route was a limited procedure using an ESPO framework direct award, without prior publication of a call for competition, rather than an open competition. The stated award basis was price. The arrangement included an option for one 12-month extension. One bid was recorded, and it was submitted electronically by an SME. The contract is covered by the Government Procurement Agreement.

This award indicates established demand from Middlesbrough Council for a civil enforcement solution linked to parking management. A credible future competitor would need to provide a complete service or system for parking enforcement operations, rather than a general parking-related product, and demonstrate that it can support a local authority’s delivery requirements in Middlesbrough. The procurement was made through the ESPO framework, so suppliers seeking comparable work would need access to an appropriate framework route or a position capable of competing through one. Price was the stated evaluation basis, making cost control and a clear, competitive pricing model important. The selected supplier was an SME, showing that the requirement can be delivered by a focused specialist rather than only a large corporate provider.
