This market engagement is being conducted in the region of Kingston upon Hull, within the UKE11 area in the United Kingdom. The focus is on the public road transport services industry category, identified with the CPV code 60112000. The council aims to gather insights from the market to inform the development of the Park & Ride Service. A preliminary market engagement notice was published on 15th June 2026, with a current milestone scheduled for 30th June 2026. The contracting authority anticipates releasing a formal Tender opportunity by October 2026, utilising a single-stage open process. Business users in the transport sector, particularly those with services related to public road transport, have the opportunity to influence the design of this potential procurement. The estimated contract value is £120,000 per year, with a possible extension after the initial two-year term. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) are particularly encouraged to engage in this process, as the procurement is designed with SME suitability in mind. Participating in the preliminary market engagement stage could position businesses advantageously for the subsequent tender, enabling them to grow by securing a new service contract with the local authority. ## Notice Hull City Council is conducting a Preliminary Market Engagement (PME) for the Priory Park, Park and Ride Service within Kingston upon Hull. PME allows local authorities and other contracting authorities in the public sector, to engage with a market. PME is designed to encourage the commercial and voluntary sectors to engage with the development process before a procurement is undertaken. This is the market's opportunity to express its views, outline market developments and generally influence how solutions to the Authority's' needs might be met. PME is not a call for competition. Following PME, the authority may conclude that procurement is not the best solution to meet a particular strategy outcome. It is essential that any organisation participating in the PME understands that a procurement opportunity is not guaranteed. It is therefore essential that organisations understand that this activity does not affect an organisation's positioning either positively or negatively should a procurement opportunity arise subsequently. The Tender opportunity is anticipated to be published within October 2026. The Tender will be via a single stage open process. The anticipated contract duration is 2 years, with an option to extend for a period of 12 months. The anticipated value of the contract is approximately PS120,000 per annum. ### Planning Information https://uk.eu-supply.com/app/rfq/rwlentrance_s.asp?PID=106292&TID=100111399&B= ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Find A Tender Service | | Latest notice | https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/056101-2026 | | Notice type | UK2 - Preliminary Market Engagement Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Planning | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 15 Jun 2026 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 1 Oct 2026 | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 29 Mar 2027 - 30 Mar 2029 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £360,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Planning | | Lots status | Planning | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | HULL CITY COUNCIL | | Locality | HULL | | Post town | Hull | | Postcode | HU1 2AA | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLE Yorkshire and The Humber | | ITL 2 | TLE1 East Yorkshire and Northern Lincolnshire | | ITL 3 | TLE11 Kingston upon Hull, City of | | Local authority | Kingston upon Hull, City of | | Electoral ward | St Andrew's & Docklands | | Westminster constituency | Kingston upon Hull West and Haltemprice | | Delivery location | TLE11 Kingston upon Hull, City of | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 60 - Transport services (excl.
