Summary of the contracting process

Perth & Kinross Council, located in Perth, UKM77, initiated a procurement process under the title "PKC13427 Ticket Issuing Machines" aimed at overhauling their ticket issuing machine network with a modern and sustainable solution. The procurement, classified under general public services and with a CPV code of 38730000, was conducted through an open procedure. Initially planned for a contract amount of £1,800,000, the tender process witnessed various stages including active tendering in June 2025 with a submission deadline initially set for 7th July 2025, which was later extended to 21st July 2025. However, the process concluded unsuccessfully in September 2025 as the status shifted to "cancelled" with the award being discontinued. The procurement's main category was goods, and it emphasised quality and price in its award criteria.

This tender presented significant opportunities for businesses specialising in parking management solutions, particularly those proficient in installing ticket machines across diverse environments such as multi-storey and open-air car parks. It required suppliers with a track record in securing necessary permits and managing traffic arrangements for safe installation. The requirements for participation included technical prowess, relevant past project experience, and financial stability, making it ideal for firms with robust project portfolios and financial health. Although the tender did not proceed to contract award, future opportunities may arise within the council's remit for businesses equipped to provide modern and reliable parking solutions.
