## Summary

The procurement process for "Cashless Parking Machines" was conducted by Bedford Borough Council, a regional authority in the United Kingdom. This tender falls under the goods category, specifically covering parking meters within the region of UKH. Initially set to refurbish and acquire new units of parking meters, the process was completed and awarded on 18th September 2025, following a direct award procedure under the ESPO Parking Management Solutions Framework. Notably, the procurement method was limited due to particularly advantageous terms from a supplier winding up its business activities, as per the legal underpinnings provided by the CELEX scheme.

The successful supplier, International Parking Systems Ltd, a large-scale organisation located in South Yorkshire, underscores the suitableness for well-established firms adept in the industry. Companies interested in similar opportunities should be equipped with innovative solutions and keen understanding of local government frameworks to remain competitive in this sector.
