Summary of the contracting process

Hampshire County Council bought real-time passenger information systems for itself and other participating authorities. The requirement covers the supply, installation, commissioning and maintenance of systems that provide passengers with up-to-date travel information. Delivery was defined across England, including the North East, North West, Yorkshire and the Humber, East Midlands, West Midlands, East of England, London, South East and South West. The procurement was for equipment and associated services, rather than a stand-alone maintenance service. It is relevant to suppliers able to provide passenger information technology and manage its installation, commissioning and ongoing maintenance across a geographically broad public-sector customer base.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded through a selective, competitive route under a framework. Vix Technology UK Limited was selected for all three recorded awards. The contracts were signed on 1 August 2025 and run from 11 August 2025 to 10 August 2029. The recorded contract values are £47,815.20, £35,904 and £93,878.40, each including VAT; these relate to separate contracts and are not combined here. The evaluation criteria are not stated in the published data. Performance is tracked against system performance, maintenance performance and maintenance status, with observations recorded monthly. The three awards concern the same single-lot requirement, with each contract covering real-time passenger information systems.

For suppliers who did not win, this award shows Hampshire County Council and participating authorities buying a combined technology and service offer: passenger information systems, installation, commissioning and continuing maintenance. A credible competitor would need to demonstrate that it can deliver and support the full lifecycle, rather than supply equipment alone, and maintain system and service performance over time. The successful supplier, Vix Technology UK Limited, is recorded as an SME, showing that this requirement was deliverable by a smaller business. The multi-authority, England-wide delivery footprint points to a need for the operational capacity to serve customers across several regions. The award was made competitively under a framework, so experience of supplying through framework arrangements would be relevant when competing for this buyer’s requirement again.
