## Summary

North Devon District Council has awarded a direct contract to National Parking Platform Limited for the provision of digital parking payment services, replacing the previous single-platform option. This contracting process, identified by the code NDC0109-26 and finalised in July 2026, falls under the services industry category of parking services. Located in Barnstaple, United Kingdom, the procurement process reached the award stage on 29th July 2026, with a standstill period ending on 10th August 2026. The contract is set to commence on 12th August 2026, running initially for two years with an option to extend up to ten years in total.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in digital payment solutions and technology integration within the parking sector. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) capable of offering innovative payment aggregation services could benefit substantially. Given the long-term potential of this contract and the scale of operations required, the opportunity is particularly well-suited to companies that possess robust technical capabilities and the ability to collaborate with various parking operators, enabling integration across multiple platforms.

## Notice

North Devon Council (NDC) intends to enter into a contract with the National Parking Platform (NPP) for the provision of digital parking payment services for NDC car parks. The NPP will replace the current arrangements which only allow payment through one parking payment service. NPP enables customers to pay for parking via any participating platform.

### Procurement Information

The conditions for Direct Award are satisfied because NPP is the only supplier able to provide the required service of enabling users to pay for parking via a wide range of parking applications through its technical function of aggregating multiple parking payment service providers into a single payment platform. No alternative supplier has the technology or co-operation of individual parking operators to provide the same service and the platform IP and assets were developed by the DfT and transferred specifically for the operation of the NPP.
