## Summary

Somerset Council procured an organisational licence for a satellite-based traffic data service covering the county. The service is accessed through a web portal and supports in-house analysis across relevant council teams. It provides origin-destination data, traffic counts and live route monitoring. The requirement is for data supply services, delivered for county-wide use; the listed delivery location is Taunton. The licence allows unlimited user logins within the organisation, so the service is intended for use by multiple teams rather than a single named user. The procurement was made through the Vertical Application Solutions framework, under its housing, environmental and planning solutions lot.

The procurement is complete and awarded. Somerset Council selected ESRI UK through a direct award from the Vertical Application Solutions framework. The award was made on 10 July 2026, at £94,900. The contract period runs from 1 May 2026 to 30 April 2028. The original submission deadline was 31 March 2026. The procurement was classified as a services requirement and used a selective procedure, with the framework call-off as the route to contract. The service requirement bundled county-wide origin-destination, traffic count and live route monitoring data into one organisational licence. The published information identifies no separate lots or evaluation weighting; the award outcome is the selection of ESRI UK.

This award shows demand from Somerset Council for a county-wide, satellite-based traffic data service that can support analysis across multiple teams. Suppliers seeking to compete when this requirement returns to market would need to provide reliable origin-destination data, traffic counts and live route monitoring through a web portal, with unlimited organisational user access. Credibility will depend on the ability to deliver the full data set across the county and make it usable for in-house analysis, rather than offering a single traffic metric or a limited-user product. The council used a framework call-off route, so relevant suppliers would need to be eligible through an appropriate framework and able to meet its terms. The awarded supplier was a large business; the opportunity was marked unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises.」 доз еиҭalc} 和盛 optimer. Wait output valid JSON strings. There is stray ending? I included closing object then weird? Need ensure proper exactly. Final text has valid JSON? yes the post quotation has } and then maybe no stray. But claim original deadline; date is 2026-03-31 before contract. Fine.
