## Summary

The procurement process involves Derby City Council, which is seeking services for the management and maintenance of its existing Pay and Display machines. The contract, valued at £311,029.55, falls under the classification of 'Car park management services' and is located within the East Midlands, England. The procurement method utilised is a limited negotiated procedure without prior publication, justified under Regulation 32(2)(b)(ii) of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015. The tender period ended on 24th June 2022, with the contract slated to start on 30th June 2022 and conclude on 29th June 2025.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) that specialise in maintenance and technical services, particularly those with experience in managing solar-powered systems. As Derby City Council has recognised the need for ongoing support that requires particular technical capabilities, businesses that can ensure interoperability with existing equipment are well-suited to pursue this contract, potentially fostering long-term partnerships in public service management.

## Notice

The Council requires ongoing maintenance of its existing Pay and Display machines. All are solar-powered and have no mains electrical connection. The vast majority of these machines are located on streets and on surface car parks within the City of Derby. The Council intends to enter into an agreement with Flowbird Smart City UK Ltd for ongoing maintenance of its existing Pay and Display machines. The negotiated procedure without prior publication is being used and is justified under Regulation 32(2)(b) (ii) of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 for the award of a public services contract. The services can only be carried out by the particular economic operator because competition is absent for technical reasons. A change of supplier cannot be made for technical reasons such as requirements of interchangeability or interoperability with existing equipment, services or installations
