The procurement process is currently in the Tender stage, with submissions due by 20th August 2018. The successful contractor will be responsible for providing camera enforcement solutions for parking violations at schools and bus stop areas in the North West region of the United Kingdom. The contract period is set to begin on 3rd September 2018 and will last for one year, concluding on 2nd September 2019. The estimated value of the contract is £128,000, and bidders are invited to participate through an open procurement method. This tender presents a substantial opportunity for businesses that specialise in transport solutions, especially those offering innovative enforcement technologies such as CCTV integration. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with expertise in public sector contracts, regulatory compliance, and traffic management systems would particularly benefit from applying. By addressing the outlined issues relating to parking enforcement, potential bidders can contribute to enhancing road safety around schools while expanding their business portfolios within local government contracts. ## Notice Parking on school 'keep clear' markings can seriously jeopardise road safety for children and it is the source of a significant number of complaints and demands for parking enforcement. Traditional enforcement using Civil Enforcement Officers (CEO) on foot can be ineffective and inefficient because schools are often in residential areas and may present a parking problem only for a short period of time twice a day. CEOs visit all schools in Stockport twice per term (six times per year) as a minimum. Stockport has 84 Primary Schools, 13 Secondary Schools and 6 Special Schools. Consequently it is difficult to effectively cover the sites but there have also been occasions when the sudden presence of an officer has led to inappropriate driving manoeuvres from drivers eager to escape the possibility of receiving a Penalty Charge Notice (PCN). Additional motorists comply, but only whist it is evident the CEO's are on site. Alternative methods of enforcement have therefore been considered. The Traffic Management Act 2004 specifically allows for camera enforcement where traditional CEO enforcement is difficult, sensitive or simply not practical. It is recognised that camera enforcement of this dangerous but short-term practice of parking whilst dropping off children on school zig-zag markings is the only really efficient and effective means of control. The Deregulation Act also allows for CCTV to be used to enforce bus stop/stand clearways and bus lanes. Stockport has specific locations where such enforcement would be of value to assist with highway safety and the efficient operation of bus services. In particular it is envisaged that the Council could use CCTV enforcement of parking on bus stop clearways at some locations close to shops and educational establishments where such parking can be a problem for bus operations. The Council could also use CCTV enforcement of the Warren Street and former A6 'Simpson's Corner' busways where traffic cutting through, sometimes at speed, risks pedestrian and cycle safety. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/b4a2c1fb-ed97-4af7-823e-0afe9b2a0357 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 6 Aug 2018 | | Submission deadline | 20 Aug 2018 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 2 Sep 2018 - 2 Sep 2019 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £128,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | STOCKPORT METROPOLITAN BOROUGH COUNCIL | | Locality | STRETFORD | | Post town | Manchester | | Postcode | M32 0TH | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLD North West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLD3 Greater Manchester | | ITL 3 | TLD34 Greater Manchester South West | | Local authority | Trafford | | Electoral ward | Gorse Hill & Cornbrook | | Westminster constituency | Stretford and Urmston | | Delivery location | TLD North West (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 34 - Transport equipment and auxiliary products to transportation ### Codes - 34000000 - Transport equipment and auxiliary products to transportation ## Release History - 6 Aug 2018 at 15:44 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/b4a2c1fb-ed97-4af7-823e-0afe9b2a0357 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/b4a2c1fb-ed97-4af7-823e-0afe9b2a0357 6th August 2018 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder ## Notice URLs - http://www.stockport.gov.uk/ ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
