## Summary

The Department for Infrastructure in Northern Ireland has awarded a contract titled "Motorway Control Systems Maintenance," focusing on traffic control services within the services industry. This procurement was executed through a limited method without prior publication of a call for competition, referencing the legal basis of Directive 2014/24/EU. The contract, valued at £6 million, aims to ensure the compatibility of the Department's systems with the common UK digital platform and is actively maintained until January 2022. The initial award date for the contract was signed on 1st February 2012.

This opportunity could greatly benefit companies specialising in traffic control services and maintenance of motorway systems. Businesses that have expertise in digital infrastructure and traffic management, especially those with experience delivering support for motorway systems, would be particularly well-suited to compete for similar contracts. The proposed three-year extension highlights the demand for ongoing maintenance and technical enhancements, presenting scope for growth in the sector.
