The exercise is currently in the planning stage, with the engagement end date set for 19th September 2024. This initiative aims to understand the market, current and emerging practices, and potential interest levels. Interested parties are encouraged to share their views by completing a questionnaire and returning it by 10:00am on 19th September 2024. The contracts are divided into two lots: Enforcement Services and Technology, with the former involving on-ground enforcement and reviewing ANPR footage, and the latter focusing on back-office processing and payment software. This market engagement presents significant opportunities for businesses in the enforcement and technology sectors, especially SMEs and VCSEs, to collaborate with Oxfordshire County Council. By participating, businesses can showcase their competencies in staff deployment, ANPR and CCTV services, handheld devices, and software solutions for penalty charge management. This initiative is an excellent chance for businesses to establish relationships with the council, gain insights into future procurement processes, and potentially influence contract specifications to align with their capabilities. ## Notice The Council will be required, in the future, to retender all parking contracts when they expire and would like to conduct market engagement ahead of time to best plan for this retender. The aim of this exercise is to understand the provider market, current and emerging practices as well as likely level of interest in the potential procurement activity that the Council may carry out. It is also an opportunity for developing relationships with providers and gain insight in to how they would approach the delivery of the service. Requirement for the New Contract The current contract has two lots - Enforcement and Technology. This has been working well under the current contract. Enforcement Services - Lot 1 - This is the staff on the ground who are carrying out the enforcement and reviewing the ANPR camera footage to enable Penalty Charge Notices to be issued for bus lanes etc. This Lot will also include Civil Enforcement Officer's CCTV/ANPR review staff, handheld devices and printers, scan bike/car, vehicles and premises, pay and display machine first line maintenance (replacing ticket rolls etc.), and implementing and removing bay suspensions. Technology - Lot 2 - This provides the back-office software to process the Penalty Charge Notices, and the software to receive payments and manage permits. The software is a hosted solution which requires sign in via a secure connection to process Penalty Charge Notices. A permit management solution is not likely to be required as part of this contract. If you are interested in sharing your views, please complete the questionnaire and return by 10:00am on 19th September 2024 via the South East Business Portal. Please note that this is neither a call for competition nor a procurement exercise. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/81091d79-14f5-404f-92cb-9b138f577eb3 | | Notice type | Market Engagement Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Not specified | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Planning | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 30 Aug 2024 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 19 Sep 2024 | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Planning | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | OXFORDSHIRE COUNTY COUNCIL | | Locality | OXFORD | | Post town | Oxford | | Postcode | OX1 1ND | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLJ South East (England) | | ITL 2 | TLJ1 Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire | | ITL 3 | TLJ14 Oxfordshire CC | | Local authority | Oxford | | Electoral ward | Osney & St Thomas | | Westminster constituency | Oxford West and Abingdon | | Delivery location | TLC North East (England), TLD North West (England), TLF East Midlands (England), TLG West Midlands (England), TLH East (England), TLJ South East (England), TLK South West (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 98 - Other community, social and personal services ### Codes - 98351110 - Parking enforcement services ## Release History - 30 Aug 2024 at 12:11 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/81091d79-14f5-404f-92cb-9b138f577eb3 - 20 Aug 2024 at 17:52 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/8f915e16-a2af-4d3e-9646-0dcd25bee8b2 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/81091d79-14f5-404f-92cb-9b138f577eb3 30th August 2024 - Early engagement notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/8f915e16-a2af-4d3e-9646-0dcd25bee8b2 20th August 2024 - Early engagement notice on Contracts Finder - https://procontract.due-north.com/Advert?advertId=9c8c5485-1c5f-ef11-812e-005056b64545 Advert ## Notice URLs - http://www.oxfordshire.gov.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
