## Summary

West Berkshire Council has completed a tendering process for the supply, installation, and maintenance of Vehicle Activated Signs and School Flashing Signs across West Berkshire. This contract spans 10 years and was awarded on 26th November 2025, with a value of £780,000. The council, a public authority entity situated in Newbury, aims to ensure reliable and cost-effective traffic management infrastructure through this procurement, which required all equipment to meet certain European and ISO standards. The open procedure procurement method saw participation from five bidders, with Roadside Technologies LTD ultimately securing the contract, whose provision begins on 2nd January 2026 and ends on 1st January 2036.

This procurement initiative presents significant opportunities for businesses in the traffic management and road equipment sectors, especially for SMEs like Roadside Technologies LTD, which successfully navigated the tender requirements to secure a substantial contract. The procurement process, characterised by an open procedure and a weighted award criterion prioritising quality, price, and social value, allows capable suppliers to compete effectively, contributing to potential business growth and increased market presence. Companies with expertise in traffic-control equipment, particularly those compliant with relevant European standards, are particularly well-suited to compete for similar tenders in the future.
