UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Leicestershire County Council commissioned annual city cordon traffic surveys for the City Council. The work comprises manual and video surveys at locations around the Outer Ring Road, Central Traffic Zone and City Centre Cordon. This is a survey services requirement, covering the collection of traffic data across the specified cordons in Leicester. The published procurement identifies Leicestershire County Council as the buyer; the service is delivered in Leicestershire. The work is a recurring survey programme rather than a one-off study, with both on-site manual observation and video-based survey activity forming part of its scope.

The procurement is complete and awarded through a below-threshold limited competition. One lot was awarded to Nationwide Data Collection (Midlands) Limited. The contract was signed on 22 April 2026 and runs from 1 May 2026 to 30 April 2027. Its stated value is £44,000 excluding VAT (£52,800 including VAT). The requirement is described as annual city cordon surveys, and the award covers survey services. No award evaluation criteria are provided in the published process details.

This award demonstrates demand from Leicestershire County Council for repeat traffic-data collection using both manual and video survey methods at multiple urban cordons. A credible competitor for this buyer’s requirement would need to plan and deliver surveys across the Outer Ring Road, Central Traffic Zone and City Centre Cordon, with the operational capacity to cover several locations and collect usable data through both approaches. Experience in traffic or transport surveys, dependable field teams, video capture and handling, and consistent survey delivery would be directly relevant. The contract was awarded through a limited competition, so suppliers seeking to compete for comparable work with this buyer would benefit from demonstrating a focused track record in city cordon surveys and the ability to support an annual programme.
