UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Police and Crime Commissioner for Cheshire procured five automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) cameras for Cheshire Constabulary. The cameras must include built-in ghost plate recognition, which identifies number plates designed to evade recognition, and a 24-month warranty. This is a supply requirement for specialist traffic-enforcement camera equipment (CPV 34971000). The equipment is for use by Cheshire Constabulary; the procurement data does not identify specific installation sites. MAV System was selected to supply the cameras.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. Cheshire Constabulary bought the cameras through the Transport Technology GCA framework RM6347, using a below-threshold direct award without competition. MAV System was awarded the contract. It was signed on 23 September 2026, with the contract running from 29 September 2026 to 28 September 2028. The contract value is £23,650 excluding VAT (£28,380 including VAT), covering five cameras and the 24-month warranty. The procurement was structured as one lot. No separate evaluation criteria are recorded; this was a direct award through the framework rather than a competed tender.

For suppliers seeking similar Cheshire Constabulary work, this award shows demand for specialist ANPR equipment with built-in ghost plate recognition and warranty provision, procured through the Transport Technology GCA framework. A credible competitor would need to supply cameras with the specified recognition capability and provide a 24-month warranty. The requirement was for five units, indicating a modest equipment supply rather than a large deployment. Suppliers should be able to participate in the relevant framework route, since this purchase was made without a competition. MAV System, an SME, was selected, showing that a supplier of this scale could deliver the requirement. The award provides a clear indication of the product specification and purchasing route for comparable future requirements from this buyer.
