UK2 - Preliminary Market Engagement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The North Yorkshire Council intends to procure a moving traffic enforcement camera solution to support civil enforcement of moving traffic offences. The requirement covers the supply and installation of approved camera technology, together with hosting, maintenance and support. It also includes the associated software and communications infrastructure. The equipment is classified as traffic-monitoring equipment. Delivery is in North Yorkshire. The council has already sought market information from suppliers of government-approved devices to understand available solutions and inform its future approach to pricing and procurement.

This process is at the planning stage: the council has set out its intention to procure, but has not invited tenders. It expects to publish a further notice on 2 October 2026. The market engagement was an information-gathering exercise, not a competition; the council says it used the responses to inform pricing schedules and future procurement options. The estimated value is £1 million excluding VAT (£1.2 million including VAT). The planned contract period runs from 8 January to 7 July 2027, with a possible extension to 7 July 2032. The procurement is planned as a single lot, with the lot marked as suitable for small and medium-sized businesses.

This requirement is likely to suit suppliers able to provide an end-to-end moving traffic enforcement camera system, rather than equipment alone. Relevant capabilities include supplying and installing government-approved cameras, hosting the solution, maintaining and supporting it, and providing the software and communications infrastructure needed for operation. Suppliers with experience in civil enforcement or traffic monitoring may be well placed to explain how their systems address the council’s needs. The council has sought information on available approved devices and on pricing and quotation methods, indicating that suppliers should be prepared to describe their solution and explain its costs clearly. The planned lot is identified as suitable for SMEs, making the requirement potentially accessible to smaller specialist suppliers as well as larger providers. No specific accreditation or technical standards are set out here.
