## Summary

Bristol City Council, located at City Hall, College Green, Bristol, has completed the procurement process for the contract titled "Monitoring and Auditing of the CAZ Finance Assistance Scheme." This contract, primarily falling under the services category, addresses the requirements of air quality monitoring and vehicle compliance within the Clean Air Zone (CAZ) in the Bristol region (UKK11). The procurement method utilised was a direct award, chosen due to the technical reasons explained as ongoing compatibility and partnership benefits with the current provider. The award was made to T.Mistry & Associates Limited, with a notable gross contract value set at £282,240 and £458,640 in previous considerations, indicating a robust commitment. The initial contract period will commence on 1st January 2027 and run through 31st March 2028, with potential extensions up to March 2030. A standstill period concluded on 10th June 2026, and a future signature date is scheduled for 30th June 2026.

This contract offers substantial growth opportunities for businesses that specialise in environmental monitoring services and technical auditing, particularly those with experience in government partnerships and air quality compliance. SMEs with established expertise in traffic monitoring and environmental auditing may find significant potential in aligning their operations with prominent local authorities like Bristol City Council. The technical and partnership-driven nature of the procurement—chosen mainly via direct award—highlights an opportunity for similar enterprises to position themselves as reliable service providers in ongoing public health and environmental quality projects. Successful bids would benefit from existing technical expertise and an ability to navigate collaborative projects with established stakeholders.

## Notice

Bristol City Council monitors air quality and vehicle compliance within the Clean Air Zone (CAZ), while the associated Financial Assistance Scheme provides grants and loans to help residents and businesses upgrade non-compliant vehicles. The purpose of this monitoring is to assess whether NO2 levels are reduced to within legal limits, as required by national air-quality legislation. This contract is to commence a new contract for an existing provision to carry out the monitoring and auditing of the CAZ financial assistance scheme to provide control and governance.

### Procurement Information

New Contract: Competition Absent TMA have provided this service since 2022 when they were sub-contracted via ESPO Consultancy Services Framework (Lot 1a). The contract had no further options to extend and Bristol City Counci wishes to directly award the contract to TMA who have the technical expertise required to continue supporting the scheme. They also maintain established working relationships with the two finance partners, and operate an audit-approved process for verifying claims. Bringing in a new supplier would cause such differences or incompatibilities that would cause significant disproportionate costs and technical difficulties in operation or maintenance.
